Hi,

Can anyone pls. Assist in installing Dashy with my portainer running in an ESXi 7 VM with Alpine Linux.

Many THX helping a newbie to have some success.

Can you test by creating the file my-local-conf.yml via some text editor or via "$touch my-local-conf.yml" and then running again?

You might also want to specify the full path rather than relying on ~/ since that seems to be resolving to /root which may not be what you actually want. Also, I've had to let the container set for a long time before it starts rendering but ymmv

[CrazyWolf13]

Seems like a permission issue you are trying to mount into root user folder?

Please try another location on the host as bind volume path.
