Bug Description

I am trying to setup PostHog locally on my Mac Machine (x86 intel chip i7). I previously tried using colima as an alternative to docker, but eventually it was not working. So I changed to podman.

Now when using podman, while spinning up clickhouse, I am getting the following errors in the docker logs:

clickhouse-1  | Processing configuration file '/etc/clickhouse-server/config.xml'.

I did go through the documentation, and there I was being told to explicitly set the containers.conf file to include the following lines:

base_hosts_file="none"

Now, I do not have root access to my machine. So, as an alternative I tried to create a custom containers.conf file at a location, and passed the location of the file as an environment variable is **CONTAINERS_CONF ** when doing podman init

I also changed the file present within podman by doing ssh into it, and still I am seeing that I am not able to figure out how to start clickhouse.

I have been searching for articles for the past couple of days, but I am somehow not able to make podman work for running PostHog.

Kindly help regarding this issue.
