AMP Docker does not run as the user launching the docker

[wispoffates]

A docker instance is being run as the user 'amp' but internally the docker must be using root as these files get owned by root and thus the chmod fails.

Is the user you're running AMP as a member of the Docker group? I can't reproduce this issue.

docker run hello-world returns correctly and the files are definitely listed as owned by root:root

After some investigation this is the expected behaviour. Inside the docker container everything is root, if you do something like docker run -it debian:stable-slim you will be logged in as root and the AMP user doesn't exist.
