Summary

Hi
I am having issue with mounting the servers.json file. Docker is creating the servers.json as a directory instead of a file. I am using absolute path for it but still getting error. Not sure how to resolve this...

Served locally on LAN for testing purposes.
Using docker compose

version: "3"

services:
shlink:
image: shlinkio/shlink:stable
restart: unless-stopped
container_name: shlink-backend
environment:
- TZ="America/Chicago"
- DEFAULT_DOMAIN=192.168.1.177:8987 #no http/https. no trailing slash
- IS_HTTPS_ENABLED=false
- GEOLITE_LICENSE_KEY=REDACTED #we'll need to get this key from maxmind.com
- DB_DRIVER=maria
- DB_USER=shlink
- DB_NAME=shlink
- DB_PASSWORD=REDACTED #change this
- DB_HOST=database
depends_on:
- database
ports:
- 8987:8080

database:
image: mariadb:10.8
restart: unless-stopped
container_name: shlink-database
environment:
- MARIADB_ROOT_PASSWORD=REDACTED #change this
- MARIADB_DATABASE=shlink
- MARIADB_USER=shlink
- MARIADB_PASSWORD=REDACTED #change this
volumes:
- ./db:/var/lib/mysql

shlink-web-client:
image: shlinkio/shlink-web-client
restart: always
container_name: shlink-gui
volumes:
- /home/user/docker/shlink/servers.json:/usr/share/nginx/html/servers.json #this file will be generated automatically
depends_on:
- shlink
ports:
- 8081:80

Error from docker:
Error response from daemon: failed to create task for container: failed to create shim task: OCI runtime create failed: runc create failed: unable to start container process: error during container init: error mounting "/home/user/docker/shlink/servers.json" to rootfs at "/usr/share/nginx/html/servers.json": mount /home/user/docker/shlink/servers.json:/usr/share/nginx/html/servers.json (via /proc/self/fd/6), flags: 0x5000: not a directory: unknown: Are you trying to mount a directory onto a file (or vice-versa)? Check if the specified host path exists and is the expected type

That volume is designed for you to provide servers to shlink-web-client, not the other way around.
