install-tool java failed

[devtribe]

Hi,

in version 9.1 the command install-tool java 21.0.5+11.0.LTS failed with prepare tools must be run as root

If i understand it correctly the user in the new version is ubuntu.

ubuntu@renovate-cc4bc6498-5xdgk:/usr/src/app$ whoami
ubuntu

install-tool node v22.12.0 runs successfully.

I can't reproduce:

$ docker run --rm -it ghcr.io/mend/renovate-ce:9.1.0 /bin/bash
ubuntu@25e050b59a7b:/usr/src/app$ whoami

Sorry it was an error on our side.

readOnlyFileSystem is activated per default by our infrastructure team for security reasons. Locally it works perfectly.

[rarkins]

You should be able to use read-only FS if you map /tmp and /opt/containerbase with read-write volumes. I'd be happy to hear if that works for you

[devtribe]

we try that first, but become the error with java.

[rarkins]

@nabeelsaabna is it expected/known that Java would fail for the read-only FS once volumes are mapped?

[nabeelsaabna]

Getting the same error for Java
A bug should be handled in github.com/containerbase/base

@devtribe it still does not reproduce for me. e.g. below I have /tmp and /opt/containerbase with read-write volumes while the rest is read-only. install-tool java works:

$ docker run --rm -it -v tmp:/tmp -v containerbase:/opt/containerbase --read-only ghcr.io/mend/renovate-ce:9.1.0 /bin/bash
