Docker error: Error response from daemon: Mounts denied: on OS X

Question

I've currently a problem and can't find a solution. I've created an apps folder in my document directory of my user and set it as apps path in the config. When I try to run the docker I get following error:

Error response from daemon: Mounts denied: The path /users/username/documents/development/docker-apps is not shared from OS X and is not known to Docker. You can configure shared paths from Docker -> Preferences... -> File Sharing.

I've added the /Users in the preferences globally but the issue is still there:

When I try to add the path I get an error massage that it's not possible because I've added the /Users globally.

My research ended with no helpful answers so I would really appreciate if you can help me with this problem.

Answer 1

I've found the problem. It seems that OS X with Docker has a problem with the path. On Linux all works fine but in OS X not. So when you write this here in the terminal, it will work but not in the Docker:

/users/username/documents/development/docker-apps

So when you add another / at the end like this:

/users/username/documents/development/docker-apps/

it will work.

Answer 2

For MacOS Docker 3.0 or higher answer provided by François Alexandre

Docker: Mounts denied. The paths ... are not shared from OS X and are not known to Docker

"With the new version 3.0.0 of Docker for mac, you need to disable use gRPC FUSE for file sharing in Preferences>Experimental Features."

Answer 3

For me it was running docker run shell script as sudo that resolved the issue.
