Research direction

Start by reviewing the linked docker-couchdb issue and reproducing the native Windows container build with the data directory configured as a VOLUME. Capture the Erlang failure and determine whether a supported CouchDB Windows image is feasible; done means providing that image or documenting the compatibility limitation and required diagnostics.

Description

pr-welcome

From docker-couchdb: klaemo/docker-couchdb#107

Other official repositories such as mongo and redis are now offering native Windows container images.

What are the plans for offering a CouchDB Windows image?

I have tried to build one myself. When I make the data directory a VOLUME Erlang quits shortly after the container starts. So there appears to be some kind of compatibility problem with CouchDB and Windows containers.

Let me know what information I could collect to diagnose why it doesn't work with native Windows docker.
