There is a file named my.cnf in the path benchmarks/web-serving/db_server/files/.
How is that file used when building the db_server docker image? I do not find any place to use that file.

similar question to generate_users.sh file.
I do not know how to use it

Sorry for the late reply.

  1. my.cnf is needed in the early version of the database server, to specify the listen address. However, now this part is replaced by this line: https://github.com/parsa-epfl/cloudsuite/blob/main/commons/mysql/mariadb-10.3/Dockerfile#L15
  2. generate_users.sh is used to generate the database initialization file elgg_db.dump. ELGG cannot directly runs over an empty database.

Feel free to reopen if you have further questions.

Best,
