Back-off restarting failed container - Boot Loop

[Gavineitor]

I'm deploying an image for tile-card-maker. The docker manages to deploy and do its thing, when it's finished it goes from active to deploying and sometimes goes active again but eventually gets stuck in deploying.

The image has a scheduling feature so it should stay active.
[DEBUG] frequency : {'interval': 12, 'unit': 'hours'}
And eventually, I want to learn how to change the 12h interval.

For now, I don't get any errors in the logs and these are my application events

[ZeroNyte]

Every got it working? trying to redo my very basic server from scratch but for some reason all I get right now is also "Back-off restarting failed container" but can't seem to fix it or find an answer to it.

 

[haifisch]

I would love to know whats going on too. In my case there are no logs for the container either.

 

[sretalla]

It seems to me that the container does its work and then exits... so the assumption that some kind of scheduler is running in the container may be false as far as I can see.

If somebody who uses this elsewhere and knows how the container is meant to work wants to chime in, maybe that will provide the definitive answer.

I don't know if it is based on the same code, but I note from the docs of a similar container:

-t, --time, --runtime​

Schedule the Maker to run on a set interval, starting on this time. Should be specified in military/24-hour time - i.e. 17:30 would be 5:30 PM, 9:00 is 9:00 AM. If specified, the Maker will never exit on it's own (unless an error occurs).

-f, --frequency​

On what interval to run the Maker. This should be specified as INTERVAL[unit], with the acceptable units being s, m, h, d, and w for seconds, minutes, hours, days, and weeks respectively. For example, providing --frequency 12h would run the Maker every 12 hours, --frequency 1d is once a day.


Must be used in conjunction with the above -t/--time/--runtime argument. If provided on its own, nothing will happen!
