Hi,
I run a Windows VM locally 24x7 (I'm on macOS) which runs a single light-weight Windows app for website ranking tracking purposes.
I'd love to be able to move his onto my Synology and would prefer the small Docker experience, to running a VM.
Has anyone successfully installed and using Wine, in Docker on their Synology? I was looking at the Docker image at Docker Hub since it's got 500K+ installs and looks to be regularly updated.
I have had a few attempts myself. I lack the Docker experience for setting it up correctly but did get it to work once, and installed the app I'm wanting. Sadly, for some reason, Docker crashed my NAS hence this request, to you folks.
For my attempts (using the mentioned image), I was lost knowing what all the variables were, the correct values, and even where to add them - i.e. no idea on the hostname variables or the /bin/bash argument and where all these are configured.
I also noticed that I had no idea where new files and data were being stored. I need to know that since the app also produces reports that I need to copy out. Wine didn't appear to create anything in the Synology Docker folder.
Can anyone help me out? I'd have thought Wine would be a popular Docker but searching these forums only resulted in 2 unrelated results.
Cheers and thanks
Martin
