Not possible to save the smvs results

docker run -it --rm \
    -v "$(pwd)/images:/code/images" \
    -v "$(pwd)/odm_georeferencing:/code/odm_georeferencing" \
    -v "$(pwd)/odm_meshing:/code/odm_meshing" \
    -v "$(pwd)/odm_orthophoto:/code/odm_orthophoto" \
    -v "$(pwd)/odm_texturing:/code/odm_texturing" \
    -v "$(pwd)/opensfm:/code/opensfm" \
    -v "$(pwd)/smvs:/code/smvs" \
    opendronemap/opendronemap

results in:

Hey @plouj, that error means you probably have a container already mounting the smvs directory.

What if you run OpenDroneMap as follows?

Place your JPGs in a folder named “images” (for example /my/project/images) , then simply run

docker run -ti --rm -v /my/project:/datasets/code opendronemap/opendronemap --project-path /datasets

[Edit]

Ah, I see what you mean now. The command you've provided should work for me now. I just didn't realize that I could use --project-path since the README.md file recommended mounting individual directories separately.

[pierotofy]

Yes, I think we should change the command reference in the README.md.

Perhaps you could help us and change it if you have time? https://github.com/OpenDroneMap/OpenDroneMap/edit/master/README.md

I would love to, but I think it would be faster for someone else to do it instead of me at this time.
