Odm: [Windows] docker: invalid reference format

[AZOM]

After having problems running ODM with the vagrant variant, I thought I'd give docker a try. Unfortunately I have following problem which I cannot solve:

foo@bar MINGW64 /c/workspace/bellus
$ winpty docker run -it --rm -v $(pwd)/images:/code/images -v $(pwd)/odm_orthophoto:/code/odm_orthophoto -v $(pwd)/odm_georeferencing:/code/odm_georeferencing opendronemap/opendronemap --meshing-size 100000
docker: invalid reference format.
See 'docker run --help'.

$ echo $(pwd)

Can anyone help please?

In windows is and not / to folders.
Eg. docker run -it --rm -v C:\Users\Usuario\git\odm_data_seneca\images:/code/images opendronemap/opendronemap

[AZOM]

@patrickelectric Unfortunately that has still the same result:
winpty docker run -it --rm -v C:\\workspace\\bellus\\images:/code/images -v C:\\workspace\\bellus\\odm_orthophoto:/code/odm_orthophoto -v C:\\workspace\\bellus\\odm_georeferencing:/code/odm_georeferencing opendronemap/opendronemap --meshing-size 100000

results in:

docker: invalid reference format.
See 'docker run --help'.

And I have to use \\ double-backspace because if you only do one it is recognized as escaping and the path is wrong. I tested with ls and that works without issues.

[dakotabenjamin]

What is winpty? is that potentially affecting the docker command?

[AZOM]

@dakotabenjamin This an additional command you need to use when operating under Windows to get a bash shell like response from whatever you are executing afterwards (e.g. docker). See https://github.com/rprichard/winpty

[Icemap]

@AZOM Please tell me the final solution. THX.

[tuxrace]

@Icemap @AZOM try wrapping with double quotes and adding a forward slash "/$(pwd)"
winpty docker run -it --rm -v "/$(pwd)"/images:/code/images -v "/$(pwd)"/odm_orthophoto:/code/odm_orthophoto -v "/$(pwd)"/odm_georeferencing:/code/odm_georeferencing opendronemap/opendronemap --meshing-size 100000

[irozgar]

@Icemap I was having this issue (not with the same project in this repo, but a different docker container) and the suggestion made by @tuxrace didn't work, but I've managed to solve this by replacing the backslashes with forward slashes in the windows path.

So instead of
docker run -it --rm -v D:\Users\irozgar\Documents\LearningDocker\php-app:/opt -w /opt --network=phpapp_appnet shippingdocker/php ls
I used
docker run -it --rm -v D:/Users/irozgar/Documents/LearningDocker/php-app:/opt -w /opt --network=phpapp_appnet shippingdocker/php ls

[KevinBurton]

I am still having this same problem with docker on window

docker run -it -v C:/Users/rburton/code/Docker/R:/home/docker -w /home/docker -u docker --rm /usr/bin/bash

... docker.exe: invalid reference format.

Server Version: 17.09.0-ce

[pavloneiman]

It should work after changing path to lowercase

docker run -it -v "C:/Users/rburton/code/Docker/R:/home/docker".ToLower() -w /home/docker -u docker --rm /usr/bin/bash

[alyssaong1]

Also note that if you have spaces in your folder name this error occurs

[tapaz1]

@irozgar 's answer worked for me. I was using $(pwd):/app in my volumes declaration, which is the present working directory with Windows backslashes included. Explicitly typing the path fixed the issue.

e.g. -v C:yourappdirectory:/app

Hope this helps others

If you want to reference a variable (such as calling your pwd) to mount the local fs.. In powershell you'll want to use ${pwd} vs $(pwd).. I'm putting this out there just in case anyone else stumbles across this thread.

docker run -v ${pwd}:/app/ -w /app/ -i -t hashicorp/terraform:light --version

[mkborregaard]

I just stumbled across this thread and was super happy to find the solution.

[gparvind]

putting the pwd variable and target path both in double quotes worked for me in powershell since I had whitespace in the source path. No slash replacement nor lower case conversion needed.
-v "${pwd}:/data"

[rom5jp]

I just put double quotes around the "host_path:container_path".
It worked for me in powershell.

docker container run -p 8080:80 -v //D/Dev/volume:/usr/share/nginx/html nginx

It's worked
docker run -it --rm --name myphp -v ${pwd}:/usr/src/myapp -w /usr/src/myapp php:7.4-cli php index.php
(the reference given on docker hub : https://hub.docker.com/_/php

Thanks! @BenMitchell1979
