[Mayan EDMS: 2001] docker local.py settings import error

[Tony Nys]

as I see, the mounted docker folder eg. mayan_data, needs a subfolder
"settings".
Mayan will check if a local.py file exist , and if not do an initial
installation and create a local.py file in that folder

But when I start mayan the 2nd time, so the file exists, it gives the error

mayan.settings <208> [ERROR] "<module>() Error importing user's local.py;
No module named media.settings.local"

so my local.py is in /Users/tony/mayan_data/settings

Starting docker:

docker run --name mayanedmspostgresql -p 80:80 -v
/Users/tony/mayan_data/:/var/lib/mayan mayanedms/mayanedms

[Roberto Rosario]

This is a problem cause by a design decision of Docker that initializes
volumes in different ways depending on the type of volume:
https://gitlab.com/mayan-edms/mayan-edms-docker/issues/6#note_22653707

Until Docker fixes this use only named volumes when deploying the Mayan
Docker image.

Thanks Roberto , but i still have the same issue:
now I do this
docker volume create --name mayan_media --opt type=none --opt
device=/Users/tony/mayan_data --opt o=bind
docker volume create --name mayan_settings --opt type=none --opt
device=/Users/tony/mayan_data --opt o=bind
docker run --env-file=/Users/tony/mayanlocalpostgres.properties --name
mayanedmspostgresql -p 80:80 -v mayan_media:/var/lib/mayan -v
mayan_settings:/etc/mayan mayanedms/mayanedms

from __future__ import absolute_import

from .base import *

SECRET_KEY = 'foo'
