Can't load subscriber data from csv file when running Docker container

[addsch]

When trying to load subscriber data via a csv file when running the Docker container, I get an error saying "No such file or directory"

open5gs_5gc     | SUBSCRIBER_DB=subscriber_db.csv
open5gs_5gc     | Reading subscriber data from csv-file.
open5gs_5gc     | Error reading subscriber_db.csv: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'subscriber_db.csv'
open5gs_5gc     | Failed to add subscribers to database

My open5gs.env file is edited as follows:

MONGODB_IP=127.0.0.1
OPEN5GS_IP=10.53.1.2
UE_IP_BASE=10.45.0
DEBUG=false
SUBSCRIBER_DB="subscriber_db.csv"

I'm following the guide outlined here where it says "The file needs to be saved at: srsRAN_Project/docker/open5gs/", which for some reason in the README located in the docker folder directory shows "It must be stored in srsgnb/docker/open5gs/", but I've searched every directory on my machine and there's no instance of an srsgnb/ directory. I've tried replacing "subscriber_db.csv" with "/home/{usr}/srsRAN_Project/docker/open5gs/subscriber_db.csv" and I still get the same error output.

Hi,
do you start the docker container as follows:

cd ./srsRAN_Project/docker
docker compose up --build 5gc

i.e., from ./srsRAN_Project/docker directory? The README file has to be fixed as there is no srsgnb directory.

Yes, I do start it from that directory, and I didn't change anything in my project but it seems to be working now after running sudo docker compose up --build 5gc. Before I was doing sudo docker compose -f docker-compose.yml up as I need Grafana as well, but that also seems to be working fine now.

once you change any file in the docker directory, you need to rebuild, so the changed files are used to build new images. I guess that now you can use :

sudo docker compose up

Ah okay that makes sense, I'm new to anything involving containerization so I didn't know. I see now that the README mentions adding the --build flag for forcing a new build but didn't think to try adding it. sudo docker compose up does work within the ./srsRAN_Project/docker directory now.
