I'm trying to setup a developer environment through a Docker container on my Windows 7 computer.
I've installed Docker toolbox for Windows.
I have an image with Apache and PHP 5.6 within, and here it is:
FROM php:5.6.15-apache
RUN apt-get update && apt-get install -y \
apt-utils vim git php5-mysql php5-memcache php5-memcached php5-intl \
wget
RUN apt-get install libapache2-mod-php5 -y -o Dpkg::Options::="--force-confdef"
RUN docker-php-ext-install mbstring
RUN docker-php-ext-install pdo pdo_mysql
RUN apt-get install libcurl4-gnutls-dev -y
RUN docker-php-ext-install curl
RUN a2enmod rewrite
ENV APACHE_RUN_USER myname
ENV APACHE_RUN_GROUP www-data
ENV APACHE_LOG_DIR /var/log/apache2
ENV APACHE_LOCK_DIR /var/lock/apache2
ENV APACHE_PID_FILE /var/run/apache2.pid
EXPOSE 80
COPY php.ini /usr/local/etc/php/php.ini
COPY apache-config.conf /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/000-default.conf
RUN echo "ServerName 127.0.1.1" >> /etc/apache2/apache2.conf
This image is created, and I can see it when I run "docker images" in the Docker quickstart terminal.
In my apache-config.conf, I just have a tiny virtual host to access a test website with just an index.php file.
Then I try to create the container in the Docker quickstart terminal:
docker run --name=php5.6_container --rm -v "//c/sites:/var/www/html" -p 80:80 -p 8080:8080 php5.6
I get the following error:
AH00112: Warning: DocumentRoot [/var/www/html/test] does not exist
AH00112: Warning: DocumentRoot [/var/www/html/test] does not exist
[Tue Dec 08 16:36:37.703143 2015] [mpm_prefork:notice] [pid 1] AH00163: Apache/2.4.10 (Debian) configured -- resuming normal operations
[Tue Dec 08 16:36:37.703733 2015] [core:notice] [pid 1] AH00094: Command line: '
apache2 -D FOREGROUND'
It seems like my volume option is not taken into account. And the container is not created.
What could I be doing wrong?
See the note for Windows and Mac at https://docs.docker.com/engine/userguide/dockervolumes/#mount-a-host-directory-as-a-data-volume. Particularly:
If you are using Docker Machine on Mac or Windows, your Docker daemon has only limited access to your OS X or Windows filesystem. Docker Machine tries to auto-share your /Users (OS X) or C:\Users (Windows) directory.
Basically, you will need to move your site files to somewhere such as c:\Users\sites
and then mount using something like suggested in documentation:
docker run --name=php5.6_container --rm -v "/c/Users/sites:/var/www/html" -p 80:80 -p 8080:8080 php5.6
Step 1: C:/Program Files/Oracle/VirtualBox/VBoxManage sharedfolder add default -name $shared_folder -hostpath d:/data
To show shared folders:
VBoxManage showvminfo default | less
Step 2(a): mount -t vboxsf -o uid=1000,gid=50 $shared_folder /data
Step 2(b): Adding an automount to boot2docker
While logged into the machine, edit/create (as root) /mnt/sda1/var/lib/boot2docker/bootlocal.sh
by adding below block to the file, sda1 may be different for you...
mkdir -p /data
mount -t vboxsf -o uid=1000,gid=50 $shared_folder /data
Then, docker-machine restart default
Step 3: Adding volume when running the container(gogs as example)
docker run --name=gogs -rm --net=host -d -v /fuple:/data gogs/gogs
The message is a "WARNING" not an error message. Are you sure your container is not created ? Have you checked with the command "docker ps -a" ?
If the message is the root cause of your problem, you should sort out the non-existence of /var/www/html/test inside your container. If it is not needed, you should removed it from apache configuration (probably inside the file /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/000-default.conf or /etc/apache2/apache2.conf).
If /var/www/html/test is needed, you could try and add
RUN mkdir /var/www/html/test
inside your Dockerfile in order to make sure the directory exists.
Also, in order to try debugging the problem, you might want to try running the container without using the volume. If there is no error, you should then enter the container ("docker exec -it php5.6_container bash") in order to debug the potential problem inside your container and check the structure of your container.
I think for Docker volume options, double quotes are not required:
docker run --name=php5.6_container --rm -v //c/sites:/var/www/html -p 80:80 -p 8080:8080 php5.6
Check if it is working. I am not sure.
See example of volume mapping at Manage data in containers.
