Is it possible to use volumes to persist sqlite database between restarts?

[iskandersierra]

I tried to setup a location for the database using

var temporalContainer = builder
	.AddTemporalServerContainer(
    	"temporal",
	    opt => opt.WithDbFileName("/data/temporal.db")
	)
	.WithVolume(
    	name: VolumeNameGenerator.Generate(temporalContainer, "data"),
	    target: "/data"
	)
	.WithLifetime(ContainerLifetime.Persistent);;

But when I start the server, I get the following error logs on the container

Added new ContainerNetworkConnection {"Container": "/temporal-c5dae37d", "Reconciliation": 28, "ContainerName": "temporal-c5dae37d", "Network": "/aspire-container-network"}

Failed to start Container {"Container": "/temporal-c5dae37d", "Reconciliation": 46, "ContainerID": "6774be3f68c7", "ContainerName": "temporal-c5dae37d", "error": "container 'temporal-c5dae37d' start failed (exit code 1)\nwriter is closed\nnot all requested objects were returned\nonly 0 out of 1 containers were successfully started"}

time=2025-12-23T10:08:51.677 level=ERROR msg="failed starting server: failed setting up schema: unable to create SQLite admin DB: unable to open database file: out of memory (14)"

Do you think on anything I could try?

I used WithBindMount successfully, but I would like to have the data inside a docker volume.

@iskandersierra Hi, sorry for the delay -- i've revamped the package and added built in support for this.

Great! I'll check it out when you publish the nuget
