Summary

This web page provides solutions for the Docker error "Error response from daemon: invalid mount config for type “bind”: bind source path does not exist:" and discusses potential causes.

Abstract

The web page titled "Docker Error: Error response from daemon: invalid mount config for type “bind”: bind source path does not exist:" discusses a common Docker error and provides three solutions to resolve it. The error occurs when running the command "docker compose up -d db" and is caused by an invalid mount configuration for the bind type, where the bind source path does not exist.

The first solution involves creating the missing path in the project root directory. The second solution is for macOS users and involves enabling full disk access for Docker and the terminal or iTerm2 in the macOS settings. The third solution is for Windows users and involves updating the password and resetting the credentials for shared drives in the Docker for Windows settings.

The web page also provides links to additional resources, including a GitHub thread and a StackOverflow post, for further assistance with this error.
