Mhh, not sure why it would want to rename node_modules/aws-sdk:

\npm error code ENOTEMPTY
\npm error syscall rename
\npm error path /app/node_modules/aws-sdk
\npm error dest /app/node_modules/.aws-sdk-P9TfRRB5
\npm error errno -39
\npm error ENOTEMPTY: directory not empty, rename '/app/node_modules/aws-sdk' -> '/app/node_modules/.aws-sdk-P9TfRRB5'

Can you try rm -rf node_modules and then run sndev start again?

I managed to get rid of ENOTEMPTY: directory not empty.

But the app is still not running and is stuck in kind of infinite boot loop.
And when I press Enter in bash console, I get:

Gracefully stopping... (press Ctrl+C again to force)
dependency failed to start: container app is unhealthy

There is nothing that would indicate an error in app container logs. In db logs, there is this:

Can you show the full app container logs during startup?

Mhh, I only see this but it shouldn't be failing because of this because we wrap the git call in next.config.js with try/catch

2025-08-12 14:48:43.860 | fatal: detected dubious ownership in repository at '/app'

2025-08-12 14:48:43.861 | could not get commit hash with git rev-parse HEAD ... using 0000

It just restarts after it's stuck at "Starting..." for 5 seconds

Can you also show me the full db container logs during startup?

I managed to get rid of ENOTEMPTY: directory not empty.

How?

I'm not 100% sure. I tried to delete node_modules using Docker Desktop, and got errors. But maybe one of the attempts succeeded. I had to do it while the container is runnning.

I'm sorry, I forgot to reply!

But mhh, the db logs don't show much. And I can see in the app logs that the migration runs successfully. So I think it's not a db problem. The prisma client is also generated.

Did you try deleting the .next folder?
