In version 3.10.1, encountering an error in 'Start in container' functionality while running in Podman.

[aparnamichael]

When we run 'Start in container' using podman (v 4.9.3) we are getting the following error.

[INFO] Starting container...

If we change the 'liberty-maven-plugin' to previous version (3.10) start in container is working without any issue.

@aparnamichael This is a duplicate of issue 1802 and is fixed in version 3.10.2 of our plugin. That version was just published earlier this week and the release notes have not been created yet. If version 3.10.2 does not resolve this issue, please reopen.

@cherylking The Start in container in Podman isn't functioning as expected on Linux (RHEL), using Podman version 4.6.1. This issue persists across Maven versions 3.10, 3.10.1, and 3.10.2. However, on Mac systems running Podman version 4.9.3, the "Start in container" feature works fine with Maven versions 3.10 and 3.10.2.

[cherylking]

@aparnamichael Is the error identical using 3.10.2 on Linux? Can you please include the logging output that shows the podman commands that were run when using version 3.10.2?

I apologize, @cherylking . After uninstalling and reinstalling Podman and attempting to run "start in container" again with both maven versions 3.10 and 3.10.2, everything seems to be working fine. Therefore, I am closing the issue for now.

[cherylking]

@aparnamichael Oh good! I was confused why the fix would not have worked for you, as I had someone test it on Linux specifically.
