Docker: Error response from daemon: invalid volume specification: ubuntu

Question

I have the following issue when I run the command docker run -v $(pwd):opt -p 8080:8080 -it synedra/hapi_api:

docker: Error response from daemon: invalid volume specification: '/home/joasimar/trai/new:opt': invalid mount config for type "bind": invalid mount path: 'opt' mount path must be absolute.

How can I fix this?

Answer 1

The paths have to be absolute. There is no current working directory or / assumed. Change it to:

docker run -v $(pwd):/opt -p 8080:8080 -it synedra/hapi_api
