1) I am following the steps in generating the docker development image in R; however, it seems the volume is not synchronized between the docker container and my host machine. Do you have any idea?
This question is related to Setting Up A Reproducible Environment. The problem can happen in the case of using a different username and volume mount path. Make sure that the three shown users are the same values.
docker run -it --rm \
-p 8787:8787 \
-e USER= --> user <-- \
-e PASSWORD=password \
-v "[Path to Project A on your system]:/home/ --> user <-- /Project_A" \
-v "[Path to cache on your system]:/home/ -->user <-- /cache" rvers
2) Trying to load the package using devtools::load_all() , however, received Error in dyn.load(dll_copy_file) : unable to load shared object, invalid ELF header .

devtools::clean_dll()
