OK, I've tried running through this on F22 now:

1. "sudo source ..." fails with "Command not found", but "sudo sh ..."
appears to work

2. It would be helpful if the script explicitly checked if the docker
daemon was running and bailed out if not. As a relative Docker noob,
it's hard to get from "Post
http:///var/run/docker.sock/v1.19/containers/create?name=db: dial unix
/var/run/docker.sock: no such file or directory. Are you trying to
connect to a TLS-enabled daemon without TLS?"  to the correct
explanation "The Docker daemon isn't running"

3. It would be helpful it the script automatically converted a
supplied relative path to an absolute path to avoid "Error response
from daemon: cannot bind mount volume:
_storage/pulp/var/log/httpd-pulpapi volume paths must be absolute."

4. After the failed run with a non-absolute path, it's now stuck at
"waiting for mongodb", and Ctrl-C doesn't work to terminate the
script. The current output is:

5. Doing "sudo docker rm -fv <hash>" for all of the running containers
and re-running the launch script still gets stuck waiting for mongodb

Nick.
