installing on macOS and Docker

[sw41]

Describe the problem you are having

macOS 13, mac mini intel 3 GHz 6-Core Intel Core i5 16gig 256ssd

Trying to get off the ground, the container keeps quitting after 4 seconds. Total docker novice, this is the 1st app I have tried to load. The error keeps telling me it cannot find the frigate config. I look in my folder /Users/me/Docker/frigate and there is a config.yml from the instructions, plus I made a config folder. When I run the install, a config.yml folder shows up inside the config folder. I have tweaked the volumes path a number of times and can't get it to see the config.

Feels like a steps is missing from the instructions that I "should know" and don't or am missing.

Version

- /Users/me/Docker/frigate/config:/config/config.yml

here you are mapping what is on the left to what is on the right. In this case you are mapping an entire folder to a single file which is incorrect. It should instead be

- /Users/me/Docker/frigate/config:/config/

Thanks, figured it was a newbie mistake.
