Permission error running a JAR as non-root user on Docker
I did write the following Dockerfiler:
FROM openjdk:8-jdk-alpine
RUN addgroup -g 999 -S appgroup &&
adduser -u 999 -S appuser -G appgroup
USER appuser
COPY myapp.jar /usr/app/myapp.jar
ENTRYPOINT ["java","-jar","/usr/app/myapp.jar"]
When I run the image, I get the follwing error:
main ERROR Unable to create file logs/file.log java.io.IOException: Could not create directory /logs
Could you please tell me what I did wrong?
linux docker alpine

User appuser
does not have write permissions in the current working directory (/
, you can verify it with docker run --rm openjdk:8-jdk-alpine pwd
), and it seems that your application needs to create a logs/
directory in that working directory.
Possible solutions :
- set the
WORKDIR
to a place he can write (/tmp
for example, or/home/appuser
if it is created) in theDockerfile
- you can use option
--workdir /path/to/a/folder/where/appuser/can/write
when issuingdocker run
command - you can create the
/logs
folder with right permissions (write forappuser
)
