It seems the original author has stopped merging pull requests, so I'm now maintaining this on my own terms from now on. Changed the base from Ubuntu to Arch linux.
warning
for improved security the new images will run the monero daemon under it's own user and not as root anymore!
If you simply upgrade without following the next steps you will run into this error:
WARN blockchain.db.lmdb src/blockchain_db/lmdb/db_lmdb.cpp:75 Failed to open lmdb environment: Permission denied
this can be fixed with the following steps
- stop and remove the current container:
docker stop monerod && docker rm monerod - change the owner of the volume to monero user
docker run -v xmrchain:/home/monero/.bitmonero -t --rm --name=monerod -u root --entrypoint=/bin/chown kannix/monero-full-node -R monero:monero .bitmonero - start the container
docker run -tid --restart=always -v xmrchain:/home/monero/.bitmonero -p 18080:18080 -p 18081:18081 --name=monerod kannix/monero-full-node
Hint: keep in mind that you have to adapt your volume bindings to your own configuration e.g. if you followed the older version of this readme you have to use: -v /var/data/blockchain-xmr:/home/monero/.bitmonero instead of -v xmrchain:/home/monero/.bitmonero
