I am trying to run homie-ota in docker (RancherOS v1.1.0 (4.9.45).
After starting it I get the error message below.
I am fairly new to docker. Not sure if it is related to docker or e.g the commandline parameters.
On the internet i cannot find similar issues nor solutions.
Who can help me fix this?

That sounds like a failure to read or parse the homie-ota.ini configuration file.

The 'global' keyword should be encased in brackets, as demoed at https://github.com/jpmens/homie-ota/blob/master/homie-ota.ini.example

Thanks for the tip. It pointed me in the right direction.
homie-ota.ini is not part of the docker image. So I had to create it on the docker host and pass it to the home-ota docker. If you want to access the docker image outside the container then also map a port (option -p). It is running fine now with:

docker run --name homie-ota -p 9080:9080 -v /home/rancher/homie-ota/homie-ota.ini:/app/homie-ota.ini ivdata/homie-ota
