alpine-apache doesn't start, could not create PID file

[gyger]

I use the base package alpine-apache to additionally install
php-apache2.

  RUN apk add --update \
          php-apache2 \
          php-sqlite3 \
          php-xml \
          php-curl \
          php-dom \
          php-iconv \
          php-pdo_sqlite \
          php-json \
          php-ctype \
        && rm -rf /var/cache/apk/*

When I try to start the container I get the following errors

Jän 08 22:56:15 <hostname> docker[19307]: [Sun Jan 08 21:56:15.136430 2017] [core:error] [pid 201] (2)No such file or directory: AH00099: could not create /run/apache2/http

Any ideas where this could come from? In the beginning my containers were working, this only happened after I rebuild it in the recent weeks (i think around two weeks ago).

This is still an issue. 2.0.1. it seems like /run/apache2 is not created. When I try to create the directory in my Dockerfile, it says it already exists. When I run the container, i look and it doesn't exist. Not sure whats going on here

This is running directly from the registry, creating a Dockerfile, nothing works.

@smebberson any ideas?

It seems like something removes these directories on init. Maybe s6? had to create directory inside the run script instead. see pr #89 and #88
