QUESTION
I am new to Docker and tried to set up Plex Media Server (https://docs.linuxserver.io/images/docker-plex) on Windows, using Docker Desktop and WSL2. I used docker-compose using the yml file shown below. I need to mount my media folders (on Windows drive F:) into the docker container, for obvious resasons.
I read that it is recommended to load the data into the WSL (https://docs.docker.com/docker-for-windows/wsl/#best-practices and https://stackoverflow.com/a/64238886/6149322), however since the media libray is very large (several hundret GB) it needs to be kept on a different hard drive. Hence, I think I cannot just move it to the WSL file system.
When I try to run docker-compose -f "docker-compose.yml" up -d --build
, I get the following error message and a popup from Docker Desktop: ("Zugriff verweigert" is german for "access denied")
ANSWER
Answered 2021-Feb-19 at 17:28I think I have resolved this issue as follows. I am not entirely sure which step was the key...
- Set "Ubuntu" as my default wsl system (instead of
docker-desktop-data
) using the commandwsl --set-default Ubuntu
in PowerShell - Copied my
docker-compose.yml
into the WSL file system. You can mount the WSL system in your Windows Explorer by typing\\WLS$
in the path file of Windows Explorer. - Opened the Ubuntu shell and run the
docker-compose
command from there. Now it works fine with the following volume definition
