Trying to start a project in DDEV but getting an API error (500)
Description
I ran into something odd. I had a project running with ddev and colima 0.6.2 (on a m1pro with sonoma and vz/virtiofs). i wanted to start a second project in the terminal within vscode. i got the following output:
$> ddev start
Starting modi...
Failed to RunSimpleContainer to inspect database version/type: failed to create/start Docker container ({GetExistingDBType-modi-MxdvNY 0x14000220960 0x14000080480 <nil> <nil>}):API error (500): mkdir /var/lib/docker/overlay2/a784aef8fbf3af0f2a38904f816e31b88e268056b829a6b35028d77864d4a4c2-init: read-only file system, output=
when i checked the containers:
$> docker ps -a

the container listed on the failed startup for the project modi doesnt exist. i then tried to poweroff ddev
$> ddev poweroff

i then tried a hard reset:

i also tried to execute docker rm -f $(docker ps -aq)inside the colima vm after colima ssh same result like on the host.
no idea what caused it and or if you need any further informations?

Reproduction Steps
I've outlined the steps that snowballed into the trouble. not sure if it is reproducible.
Expected behaviour
the error cascade happened out of the blue.
Additional context
No response
Can you try with the current development version?
brew install --HEAD colima
My bet is this is solved in 0.6.4
My bet is this is solved in 0.6.4
i think so too.
Can you try with the current development version?
testing might be difficult with the profile i ran into the issue. in the course of trying to recover or at least powerdown ddev i deleted some images and projects. and in the end the situation was worth. i've backup'ed and cloned the profile still based on the recommendation of @rfay but then deleted the original and created a new profile to being able to access some of the projects today. and i would have tested the HEAD version but now already a release is tagged and i gonna wait a few more hours until it shows up on homebrew and then give it a try. but as i said i also think the odds are high that things will be fixed with this release and i would also have a hard time to reproduce the issue anyway. i'Ve just reported it as a fyi that something like that happend and "maybe" you would have been able to notice any clues what has lead to that error. but will test 0.6.4 as soon as it is available on homebrew. thank you for the fast release!
