Question

While installing cosmosdb emulator locally with docker, container exits immediately

Aryan Raj 0

I have set up docker and trying to run cosmos db emulator locally on my m2 mac,
pulled image from mcr.microsoft.com/cosmosdb/linux/azure-cosmos-emulator:latest

when running following command to start the container

docker run --platform linux/amd64 \
    --publish 8081:8081 \
    --publish 10250-10255:10250-10255 \
    -m 2g --cpus=2.0 --name=cosmosdb \
    -e AZURE_COSMOS_EMULATOR_PARTITION_COUNT=2 \
    -e AZURE_COSMOS_EMULATOR_ENABLE_DATA_PERSISTENCE=true \
    --interactive \
    --tty \
    mcr.microsoft.com/cosmosdb/linux/azure-cosmos-emulator:latest

It is giving log as This is an evaluation version. There are [21] days left in the evaluation period. and exits immediately afterwards

Hi, @Aryan Raj Welcome to Microsoft Q&A thanks for posting your question

I understand that the logs displayed as This is an evaluation version. There are [21] days left in the evaluation period. and exits immediately afterward

Yes, the message "There are [21] days left in the evaluation period" is simply a placeholder message that is displayed during the preview period of the Cosmos DB emulator.

If you have any further questions or concerns,please do let me know

Hello, Thanks for replying
I get the meaning behind this log, what my issue is why does container exits with code 0, after displaying this log ?
There is no other log as well that can be used to troubleshoot the problem. [SS attached]

This is what I'm doing right now.

So, I am currently working on app and was planning to host it via azure, now if i can not test it locally I will have to opt to some other solution, which will break the whole azure ecosystem thing.
Is there any alternative way as per your suggestion?

@Aryan Raj This approach hasn't been supported in the past, and a better option is to adhere to the documented recommendations
