docker: Error response from daemon: failed to create shim: OCI runtime create failed: container_linux.go:380: starting container process caused: process_linux.go:545: container init caused: rootfs_linux.go:75: mounting "/mnt/user/appdata/icloud-drive-sync/config.yaml" to rootfs at "/app/config.yaml" caused: mount through procfd: not a directory: unknown: Are you trying to mount a directory onto a file (or vice-versa)? Check if the specified host path exists and is the expected type.

To Reproduce
It appears on Unraid

@isaaccs : Try creating config.yaml file first and then mount it on container.

[bjsharplin]

For "Config Path:"-Click Edit button-Change "Container Path", "HostPath","Default Value". When you edit the config.yaml in the console, it's /app/config.yaml.

[isaaccs]

Do you mean to create a folder with the config file ?

[mandarons]

Correct - as shown in installation using docker compose, it should be:

Container Path: /app/config.yaml
Host Path: /mnt/user/appdata/icloud-drive-sync/config.yaml

[bjsharplin]

Have you tried that setting? That will throw an error using unRaid docker. It seems to want to create a drive/folder not a file.

[mandarons]

No. Sorry, I never used unRaid and cannot try it on my end. Is there any other way to specify volumes in unRaid? Probably some CLI to bypass the GUI?

[isaaccs]

I changed my settings as suggested
then i put my config file in in icloud-drive-sync folder

I run my docker, then open my console and run:
icloud --username= --session-directory=/app/session_data
And I have the following error

[bjsharplin]

When you run this command from the console, be sure to set your icloud username after the equals sign

icloud --username=!!!!!!!!!!! --session-directory=/app/session_data

[isaaccs]

of course it's what i did

[bjsharplin]

did you update the /app/config.yaml file to include your icloud account and the icloud folders you want to sync over?

[isaaccs]

yes

[bjsharplin]

the password is stored to the keyring when you run this command. perhaps you need to run it again. it should prompt for password, ask to save to keyring, and 2fa code (if you have that turned on).

[isaaccs]

I restart my container and I have the same error

[isaaccs]

/app # icloud --list

drive:

[bjsharplin]

This is what my config.yaml look like. I have folders specified under the "drive" section, and "All Photos" for pictures. I did move all my folders into and "iCloud" folder to make this setup very simple, but you could list them all out. Maybe the filters section is optional??

[isaaccs]

I don't specify any filters because I want to backup all my iCloud data

[mandarons]

@isaaccs :
Also mount -

${PWD}/icloud/data:/app/icloud (if you want to save the iCloud data outside container)
${PWD}/session_data:/app/session_data (this will eliminate the need of entering password after container recreation)

Pleas make sure to say 'yes' to save password in keyring when you execute icloud --username=<your_email> --session-directory=/app/session_data inside the container.

Hello!
Thank you for making this available :) I too am having an issue. I was able to get the container up and running by following some of the advice in this thread but now after authenticating, the container is just constantly restarting. Logs below:

My folder structure looks like this:

drwxrwxr-x  4 tiny tiny 4096 Oct  4 14:44 .
drwxr-x--- 18 tiny tiny 4096 Oct  4 14:11 ..

drwxr-xr-x  2 root root 4096 Oct  4 14:44 session_data

and my compose file:

version: "3.4"
services:
  icloud:
    image: mandarons/icloud-drive
    environment:
      - PUID=1000
      - GUID=1000
    env_file:
      - .env.icloud #should contain ENV_ICLOUD_PASSWORD=<password>
    container_name: icloud
    restart: unless-stopped
    volumes:
      - /etc/timezone:/etc/timezone:ro
      - /etc/localtime:/etc/localtime:ro
      - ${PWD}/config.yaml:/app/config.yaml
      - ${PWD}/data:/app/icloud
      - ${PWD}/session_data:/app/session_data

I removed the second icloud folder that was in the sample compose because i didn't want two icloud folders.

In my config.yml i commented out all of the drive stuff since I only want photos. I put in a single album name in the filter just to give things a try. Any help would be appreciated :)

@rastacalavera : looks like server side issue. You will need to wait (not sure, how long) for server side indexing to finish.
