FireFly Unable to Start Due to Docker Container Failures on Windows and Ubuntu Env

[vishnuvajhalaharsha]

Hi Everyone,

I'm facing an issue with starting the FireFly server due to failures in Docker containers, and I could use some help troubleshooting it. Here are the details:

System Details:

Operating System: Windows, switched to WSL (Ubuntu) environment
Command used: ff start org1
Docker command: docker ps -a
Issue:
When I run ff start org1, some of the Docker containers fail to start properly. Below is the screenshot showing the details of the issue:

Docker Container Status:

As you can see, several containers exit immediately after starting, with some showing an exit status of (1) and others (0). This happens both on my native Windows environment and when I switched to using WSL with Ubuntu.

Has anyone experienced similar issues or have any suggestions on how to resolve this? Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thank you!

@vishnuvajhalaharsha thanks for raising this! Could you provide some logs of the failed containers to be able to understand further what the cause might be?

Hi @EnriqueL8 ,

Thank you for the reply, please find the logs for the below containers.

Firefly Container does not show any logs but failed to run.

Thanks - so it seems like an issue with files and volume mounting

I've just tested this on a Windows machine and it worked fine for me! I used WSL Ubuntu distro and made sure to configure Docker correctly with WSL.

@vishnuvajhalaharsha I wonder if you had any permission problems with those files or maybe the ff init command did not create the files correctly in the first place

Hi @EnriqueL8,
Thanks for letting me know that it works in the Ubuntu environment. It could be the latter issue because, when I looked up the generated files, a couple of folders were created instead of the actual file.
I'll try to trouble shoot again tonight with proper docker setup.
