Not sure what’s wrong here , but i can’t share volumes between containers, has anyone have a working example ?

I’m trying to share a volume ‘connectwebconfig’ for “connect web” service.

## docker-compose.yml

## version: '2’ services: connectwebconfig: image: [xxxxxxx.dkr.ecr.us-east-1.amazonaws.com/connectwebconfig:v4](http://xxxxxxx.dkr.ecr.us-east-1.amazonaws.com/connectwebconfig:v4) stdin\_open: true tty: true command: - /bin/sh labels: io.rancher.container.pull\_image: always io.rancher.scheduler.affinity:host\_label: connectweb=true db: image: mysql environment: MYSQL\_DATABASE: connect MYSQL\_PASSWORD: password MYSQL\_ROOT\_PASSWORD: password MYSQL\_USER: admin stdin\_open: true volumes: - /data:/var/lib/mysql tty: true ports: - 3306:3306/tcp labels: io.rancher.scheduler.affinity:host\_label: connectweb=true io.rancher.container.pull\_image: always connectweb: image: [xxxxxxx.dkr.ecr.us-east-1.amazonaws.com/connect-web:v17](http://xxxxxxx.dkr.ecr.us-east-1.amazonaws.com/connect-web:v17) stdin\_open: true tty: true links: - db:db volumes\_from: - connectwebconfig ports: - 8081:80/tcp labels: io.rancher.scheduler.affinity:host\_label: connectweb=true io.rancher.container.pull\_image: always
