sina not working within a docker container #107

If I run sina within a docker container (I've tried quay.io/biocontainers/sina:1.7.1--h9aa86b4_0 and creating my own container; see below), I get the error:

02:38:59 [SINA] This is SINA 1.7.2.
02:38:59 [SINA] Unable to open ARB database "SILVA_138.1_SSURef_NR99_12_06_20_opt.arb".
02:38:59 [SINA] The ARB database you were trying to use is likely corrupted.

My job:

sina --threads 4 --turn \
    --fasta-write-dna --lowercase none \
    --intype fasta --outtype fasta \
    --in $fasta \
    --db  SILVA_138.1_SSURef_NR99_12_06_20_opt.arb \
    -o align.fna

If I run the same job outside of the container image:

wget https://github.com/epruesse/SINA/releases/download/v1.7.2/sina-1.7.2-linux.tar.gz
tar -pzxvf sina-1.7.2-linux.tar.gz

  ./sina-1.7.2-linux/sina --threads ${task.cpus} --turn \
    --fasta-write-dna --lowercase none \
    --intype fasta --outtype fasta \
    --in $fasta \
    --db $sina_db_arb \
    -o align.fna

...the job completes successfully.

There seems to be something about running sina within a docker container that causes it to fail with the error: [SINA] Unable to open ARB database

Maybe it has something to do with ownership/permissions?

The dockerfile for my own sina image:

FROM ubuntu:22.04

USER root
RUN apt-get update && \
    apt-get install -y wget python3.9 && \
    ln -sf /usr/bin/python3 /usr/bin/python && \
    apt-get clean && \
    apt-get purge && \
    rm -rf /var/lib/apt/lists/* /tmp/*

RUN wget https://github.com/epruesse/SINA/releases/download/v1.7.2/sina-1.7.2-linux.tar.gz && \
  tar -pzxvf sina-1.7.2-linux.tar.gz && \
  mv sina-1.7.2-linux /bin/sina-1.7.2-linux/ && \
  ln -sf /bin/sina-1.7.2-linux/bin/sina /bin/sina && \
  rm -f sina-1.7.2-linux.tar.gz

WORKDIR /data

Switching to ubuntu:20.04 does not fix the issue.
