Starting Aerospike EE on docker throws Exited (1) error

Operations Containers (Docker, etc.)
1

Hi,

Trying to deploy Aerospike EE edition with Docker.

There seems to be an error in start-up doc which states:

$ sudo docker run -tid --name aerospike -p 3000:3000 -p 3001:3001 -p 3002:3002 -p 3003:3003 -v <DIRECTORY>:/etc/aerospike/ -e "FEATURE_KEY_FILE=/etc/aerospike/features.conf" aerospike/aerospike-server-enterprise.

I believe the correct way would be

cd /etc/aerospike
 sudo docker run -tid --name aerospike -p 3000:3000 -p 3001:3001 -p 3002:3002 -p 3003:3003 -v "$(pwd):/etc/aerospike/" -e "FEATURE_KEY_FILE=/etc/aerospike/features.conf" aerospike/aerospike-server-enterprise

However, this throws error as follows

 docker ps -a
CONTAINER ID        IMAGE                                   COMMAND                  CREATED             STATUS                      PORTS                                                                    NAMES
b13b046474a5        aerospike/aerospike-server-enterprise   "/entrypoint.sh asd"     31 minutes ago      Exited (1) 26 minutes ago                                                                            aerospike

The log does not say much:

docker logs aerospike
link eth0 state up
link eth0 state up in 0
link eth0 state up
link eth0 state up in 0

The config file used is as follows:

cat aerospike.conf
# Aerospike database configuration file for use with systemd.

    log {

        report-user-admin true
        report-sys-admin true
        report-violation true
        report-data-op test seta # report successful data transactions on set "seta" in namespace "test"
    }
}

namespace test {
        replication-factor 1
        memory-size 8G
        default-ttl 30d # 30 days, use 0 to never expire/evict.

Appreciate any advice.

Thanks,

OK I sorted this one out and managed to create a docker for Aerospike Enterprise Edition with security plus both Aerospike-Kafka and Aerospike-Spark connectors on host running RHES 7.6

docker run -tid --net=host -v /etc/aerospike:/opt/aerospike/etc -v /etc/aerospike:/etc/aerospike -v /ssd/aerospike/ee/data:/opt/aerospike/data -v /opt/aerospike/etc/ee:/var/log -e "FEATURE_KEY_FILE=/etc/aerospike/features.conf" -e "LOGFILE=/var/log/aerospike.log" --name aerospike -p 3000:3000 -p 3001:3001 -p 3002:3002 -p 3003:3003 aerospike/aerospike-server-enterprise /usr/bin/asd --foreground --config-file /etc/aerospike/aerospike.conf

Will try to add the process to my GitHub

Hi @Mich_Talebzadeh

The docker run command that you used initially looks fine. I see that you mentioned the container did not start successfully. Since you haven’t configured console {} logging in aerospike.conf file, docker logs will not show aerospike logs. Were you able to confirm what issue or exact error it was initially?

docker run -tid --name aerospike -p 3000:3000 -p 3001:3001 -p 3002:3002 -p 3003:3003 -v <DIRECTORY>:/etc/aerospike/ -e "FEATURE_KEY_FILE=/etc/aerospike/features.conf" aerospike/aerospike-server-enterprise

The <DIRECTORY> here could be any path on your host machine, where features.conf (Enterprise license) file is present.

Also your aerospike.conf file seems to be missing a } in the end. Is this the error that prevented the container from starting.

Thanks.
