I tried to setup convoy with this howto: > **[Setting Up Shared Volumes with Convoy-NFS | Rancher Labs](http://rancher.com/setting-shared-volumes-convoy-nfs/)** > > If you have been working with Docker for any length of time, you probably already know that shared volumes and data access across hosts is a tough problem. So whenever the containers come up the logs look like this: ``` 10/18/2016 10:55:14 PMWaiting for metadata 10/18/2016 10:55:15 PMtime="2016-10-18T20:55:15Z" level=info msg="Execing [/usr/bin/nsenter --mount=/proc/19834/ns/mnt -F -- /var/lib/docker/aufs/mnt/d0d5b99eacca64567698ad55a5087f0a5b9b6cde2638bfb61adc04934c0ba861/var/lib/rancher/convoy-agent/share-mnt --stage2 /var/lib/rancher/convoy/Not found-Not found -- /launch volume-agent-nfs-internal 19834]" 10/18/2016 10:55:15 PMTimestamp: 2016-10-18 20:55:15.959195851 +0000 UTC 10/18/2016 10:55:15 PMCode: System error10/18/2016 10:55:15 PM 10/18/2016 10:55:15 PMMessage: stat found-Not: no such file or directory [...] ``` I’m using: - Docker version 1.12.1, build 23cf638 on Debian 8.3 - Rancher v1.2.0-pre4-rc2 Cattle v0.170.1 User Interface v1.2.13 Rancher Compose v0.11.0-rc2 Note the above buggy nsenter command especially “–stage2 /var/lib/rancher/convoy/Not found-Not found --” On the host you can then find something like this: ``` $:/var/lib/rancher/convoy# ls -l total 8 drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 4096 Oct 18 20:55 convoy-nfs-2d88e5cd-7c48-49da-8af0-06a94ae1e757 drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 Oct 18 20:55 Not $:/var/lib/rancher/convoy# ``` I’ve installed nfs-server and nfs-common. I tried it with and without nfsvers=4 and i always used the latest version in the catalog (v0.4.0). My gut-feeling tells me i’m missing something obvious here, any idea?

It seems that this line is created here: share-mnt-v0.1.2/main.go#L160 The os.Args[1:]… are (eventually) probably specified here: > So my guess is that these curl-commands are failing for some reason. However if i try that manually, it seems to work: ``` $ docker exec -it 397ae0862554 bash root@397ae0862554:/# curl -s http://rancher-metadata/2015-07-25/self/stack/name convoy-nfsroot@397ae0862554:/# curl -s http://rancher-metadata/2015-07-25/self/stack/uuid 294d5998-2611-431b-b23b-16290748f843root@397ae0862554:/# ``` So maybe there is a wait\_for\_metadata missing here: > ---

convoy-agent doesn’t have a bugtracker. Anyway, PR created: Sorry, new users can only put 2 links in a post. [github.com/rancher/convoy-agent/pull/35](http://github.com/rancher/convoy-agent/pull/35) ---

@k9ert I replied to your PR. We can continue the conversation there. Also, I opened this issue to track: [https://github.com/rancher/rancher/issues/6387](https://github.com/rancher/rancher/issues/6387). Because of the large number of projects/microservices we have, we centralize bug tracking in the rancher repo.
