Jenkins wrong volume permissions

问题:

I have a virtual machine hosting Oracle Linux where I've installed Docker and created containers using a docker-compose file. I placed the jenkins volume under a shared folder but when starting the docker-compose up I got the following error for Jenkins :

jenkins | touch: cannot touch ‘/var/jenkins_home/copy_reference_file.log’: Permission denied jenkins | Can not write to /var/jenkins_home/copy_reference_file.log. Wrong volume permissions? jenkins exited with code 1

Here's the volumes declaration

  volumes:
    - "/media/sf_devops-workspaces/dev-tools/continuous-integration/jenkins:/var/jenkins_home"

The problem is, that your user in the container has different userid:groupid as the user on the host.

you have two possibilities:

1. You can ensure that the user in the container has the same userid:groupid like the user on the host, which has access to the mounted volume. For this you have to adjust the user in the Dockerfile. Create a user in the dockerfile with the same userid:groupid and then switch to this user https://docs.docker.com/engine/reference/builder/#user

2. You can ensure that the user on the host has the same userid:groupid like the user in the container. For this, enter the container with docker exec -it <container-name> bash and show the user id id -u <username> group id id -G <username>. Change the permissions of the mounted volume to this userid:groupid.

As haschibaschi stated your user in the container has different userid:groupid than the user on the host.

To get around this is to start the container without the (problematic) volume mapping, then run bash on the container:

docker run -p 8080:8080 -p 50000:50000 -it jenkins bin/bash

Once inside the container's shell run the id command and you'll get results like:

uid=1000(jenkins) gid=1000(jenkins) groups=1000(jenkins)

Exit the container, go to the folder you are trying to map and run:

chown -R 1000:1000 .

With the permissions now matching, you should be able to run the original docker command with the volume mapping.

This error solve using following commnad.

goto your jenkins data mount path : /media

Run following command :

cd /media
sudo chown -R ubuntu:ubuntu sf_devops-workspaces

restart jenkins docker container

docker-compose restart jenkins

The easy fix it to use the -u parameter. Keep in mind this will run as a root user (uid=0)

docker run -u 0 -d -p 8080:8080 -p 50000:50000 -v /data/jenkins:/var/jenkins_home jenkins/jenkins:lts
