Does the container stop? Try docker exec -it container /bin/bash and see if you can evaluate there. You can also do docker logs to see what is happening.
I have been trying to get a new Docker container working with PostgreSQL 9.6.6 and I’d like it to start with one of our app’s schemas, but the shell script I’m invoking at the end of the Dockerfile with an ENTRYPOINT doesn’t seem to want to go past the database startup. I think the script isn’t completing due to the output of postgres process. At least, this is my suspicion. Right now, the shell script is only trying to invoke psql -c “CREATE DATABASE code” after it starts the cluster. If this is the case, is there any option to just quietly start the cluster? If not, is there anyway to make this work? — Jay
