Let's Encrypt in Docker - docker.env: no such file or directory about dokku-letsencrypt HOT 4 OPEN

@paschaldev this will depend on what host folder you are mapping to container dokku folder "/mnt/dokku".

Here is the example assume you are mapping host folder "/path/to/host/dokku-data" into dokku container "/mnt/dokku" folder, then you need;

# inside of dokku container
mkdir -p /path/to/host
cd /path/to/host
ln -s /mnt/dokku dokku-data

# verify the dokku folder is found by using host folder path inside of dokku container
ls /path/to/host/dokku-data/home/dokku

Get the same issue when running dokku inside of container.

By looking into the code for build docker run command:

The --env-file parameter is using host folder, not the folder inside of dokku container.

Because of docker run requires loading this env file to construct docker API call, before sending request to docker daemon, it get "no such file or directory" error. --env-file argument is not like volume mount, should use dokku side file path.

My current workaround is to exec into dokku container, and create symbo-link folder to let dokku container docker client can read file with same location in host level. This may recreate again after dokku container recreated (like upgrading).

I've tried exposing Dokku container directly without Traefik but I get exact same error, its not the reason.
