I've run into an issue where the container never fully starts, it seems stuck in a loop trying to start mongodb. Here's a little snippet from the console:

I also attached a copy of "run.sh" , renamed a little...

Hi!

Jun 22 13:34:58 7e473a75ec8f mongod.27017[8948]: [initandlisten] exception in initAndListen: 10309 Unable to create/open lock file: /var/lib/mongodb/mongod.lock errno:13 Permission denied Is a mongod instance already running?, terminating

The /var/lib/mongodb is a mapped Host Data Volume directory which is the Applications/mongodb directory that you have created. However, it seems that the docker daemon doesn't have the required access rights to write to that directory. Make sure that whichever user the docker daemon is running as (most probably a separate user called "docker") has the required access rights to write to Applications/mongodb

I hope this helps.

Cheers! 🍻
