mongo:3.0.6 will not work on circleci about mongo HOT 6 CLOSED

I haven't looked this issue closely, but CircleCI is running docker inside LXC container and the chown of FD in LXC container seems restricted.

I wonder what the motivation for the change to gosu was, anyway. I'd think CircleCI aside, not all filesystems support chown (or any concept of ownership at all), and there's not even a guarantee that a file descriptor is a regular file anyway: it may be a socket, or a pipe, etc. It looks like gosu might handle the pipe and socket cases by ignoring EBADF, but the comment suggests the reasoning is something else.

Besides, changing my file permissions is not a behavior I'd expect in a tool for changing users, nor does it appear to be documented anywhere. I wouldn't be surprised if there are a few security problems introduced by this change.

Hi, i think i'm having a similar problem:

i try to run a rocketchat server with docker with these two commands:

docker run --name db -d mongo mongod --smallfiles
docker run --name rocketchat -p 80:3000 --env ROOT_URL=http://localhost --link db:mongo -d rocket.chat

the creation of the mongodb server fails with following log:

error: failed switching to "mongodb": fchown fds permission denied

I'm running CentOS 7 with Docker version 1.7.1, build 446ad9b/1.7.1

Can someone help me getting it up and running?

@dominikmueller for now you can work around the issue by using the previous version of the mongo image:

docker run --name db -d mongo:3.0.5 mongod --smallfiles

from mongo.

Awesome! :) Many Thanks @bitglue - worked with 3.0.5 👍

from mongo.

Looks like Docker Hub has been updated and our builds are working now with mongo:3.0. Thanks for the prompt fix!
