If some updating of the docker image is undertaken it would be good to try to enable multi-architecture support. Currently the BaseX docker image fails on ARM machines. It is far from alone in this.

Recent docker developments claim to make ARM support much easier [1] /Andy [1] https://developer.arm.com/common-tasks/getting-started-with-docker/single-page On Tue, 15 Sep 2020 at 09:06, Michael Seiferle <m...@basex.org> wrote: > Hi Nicholas, > > I think this might be indeed a good chance to re-engineer our docker > image. > We had one user that maintained the image long time ago, but maybe it > would be good to have it updated. > We don’t tend to use docker that often, as you might have noticed ;-) > > best > Michael > > > > Am 05.09.2020 um 02:24 schrieb Nicholas Saunders < > saunders.nicho...@gmail.com>: > > > > There was an additional response: > > > > > > https://devops.stackexchange.com/q/12338/23443 > > > > with remarks about the basex docker image which are a bit over my head > > but should prove useful for the maintainer(s). > > > > On 9/4/20, Nicholas Saunders <saunders.nicho...@gmail.com> wrote: > >> Certainly, I was able to get the container running. > >> > >> The web.xml threw me off, and then the docs said to use a deprecated > >> command. > >> > >> On 9/4/20, Markus Wittenberg <wittenb...@axxepta.de> wrote: > >>> Hi there, > >>> > >>> in fact the web.xml is not missing.
