Why Aren’t My Docker Volumes Being Created for Rustdesk?

To clarify for everyone, in your current setup, you're not actually creating a Docker volume, you're creating a bind mount. That means the data will be stored in the specified local directory. If you want a Docker-managed volume that persists between container restarts, adjust your volume definitions as I mentioned earlier. And any errors should pop up if Docker can’t access the directories when deploying.

It looks like your configuration is set up for bind mounts instead of creating volumes. For Docker to create a volume, you should define it without the './' notation. Instead of your current entries under volumes, try changing them to something like this:

- rustdesk:/root

Additionally, make sure to include a 'volumes' section at the end of your compose file to declare the volume. It should look like this:

volumes:
rustdesk:

Just double-check, do you have a 'rustdesk' directory in the same location as your compose file? It should contain a 'data' subdirectory because with your setup, that's where the bind mount would point to. If that directory doesn't exist, it won't be created automatically, and Docker will throw an error when it can't access it.
