I get this error when I do anything with podman:
$ podman login …
ERRO[0000] User-selected graph driver "vfs" overwritten by graph driver "overlay" from database - delete libpod local files to resolve
When I tried workarounds, i.e. actually deleting libpod
(I only moved it for backup reasons, ~/.local/share/containers
), it now shows me an empty terminal for everything I do and does not exit. It is just blank.
I did not change anything and I also actually do not really want to delete all my containers. It should just work again…
BTW, I can see it re-creates the $HOME/.local/share/containers
dir when I start it though. Actually, only one file is created though: $HOME/.local/share/containers/storage/libpod/bolt_state.db
Even podman info
and podman version
is broken now. Only podman -v
works and returns podman version 2.1.1
.
