I have troubled installing a few apps from the appstore. I guess the issu is that these apps were not removed properly.
These apps were installed previouslt, then removed and if I try to isntall them again from teh appstore, I fon’t get the modal with the configuration parameters, the installation progress bar appear all of sudden.
And towards the end I get a message like: "Error response from daemon: invalid mount config for type “bind”: bind source path does not exist: [EXPECTED PATH]
Where [EXPECTED PATH] is whatever the app is the folder the the installation is looking for but does not yet exist. I guess if the “setting form” was showed, the folder would have been created and that would make the installation work.
It sounds like those apps still have leftover config paths from the previous install, so ZimaOS skips the setup form and tries to re-use the old folder locations. Because those folders no longer exist, Docker throws the “invalid mount config / bind source path does not exist” error.
The easiest fix is to remove the old AppData folder so ZimaOS treats the app as a fresh install.
For example, if the failing app is looking for something like:
/DATA/AppData/<app-name>
delete or rename that folder, then try installing again, the settings form should return and the app will recreate the paths properly.
If you’re not sure where the leftover folder is, open File Manager > AppData and look for the app name. You can also recreate the missing folder manually, but cleaning the old AppData is usually better.
If it still skips the form after removing AppData, I suggest reaching out to IceWhale support so they can take a look.
Exactly, it’s a good solution that I’ve also used.
Unfortunately I’ve tried before to delete those folders and it did work once. Not anymore. Also it seems that now most of the new apps that I try to install for the first time, skip the installation configuration form and then get stuck at 100% installation. If I try to delete the app folders, restart and install them again I get the same scenario. However I can effectively install apps with yaml files, it seems that the issue sits somehow in the App Store.
