Hi, I'm experimenting with Signoz on my local mac laptop and running into an issue getting the clickhouse-setup-otel-collector-1 container to start: error while creating mount source path '/host_mnt/private/var/lib/docker/containers': mkdir /host_mnt/private/var/lib/docker: operation not permitted I've tried deleting all images, restarting docker, etc. to no avail. Is there something obvious I'm missing?

Hi Peter 👋

It looks like permission issue.

You can try running the Docker command with sudo .
Or you can adjust the file system permissions to allow the user to manage directories in the specified path.

Does the user running the command have enough file system permissions?

I see that you have resolved this with the following:
sudo mkdir -p /private/var/lib/docker/containers
