Initializing docker database - --osm-file does not exist about nominatim-docker HOT 7 CLOSED

Ok, got it. The you should change the file to run inside the container:

docker run -t -v ~/nominatim-data:/data nominatim sh /app/init.sh /data/spain-latest.osm.pbf postgresdata 2

from nominatim-docker.

Yes, the pbf name is not the destination file name, but the data you want to read.

Got caught by this several time as well!

from nominatim-docker.

/data/merged.osm.pbf -> /data/poland-latest.osm.pbf
Except if you merged the file before?

from nominatim-docker.

Same here. Guide is not very clear at this point. I place my pbf file from spain, in ~/nominatim-data/spain-latest.osm.pbf and i get the same error after the first initialization.
BR!

from nominatim-docker.

Perfect! Works now. Thanks @abandin-stratio and @mbrucher .

I'll create a pull request to make the guide clearer.

So I have read the thread down to this point but I am still having the same problem as macieg was originally. This is my print out....what am I missing??

WARNING: enabling "trust" authentication for local connections
You can change this by editing pg_hba.conf or using the option -A, or
--auth-local and --auth-host, the next time you run initdb.

Success. You can now start the database server using:

/usr/lib/postgresql/11/bin/pg_ctl -D /data/postgresdata -l logfile start

Solved defined other volumen binding file *.pbf into container before execute sh /app/init.sh, example:

docker run -t -v ~/nominatimdata:/data mediagis/nominatim -v ~/pbf/on.osm.pbf:/home/nominatim/on.osm.pbf sh /app/init.sh /home/nominatim/on.osm.pbf postgresdata 2
