Hi all, would like to ask for help. I am attempting to run mysql:latest image on Azure Container Instance. I am not modifying anything and simply pulling the image from the public docker registry. However, my container fails to start. I would kindly appreciate any help - I am a beginner here.

This is my log file.

    @Nithiwat Seesillapachai Thank you for your patience!!!

    Below is the response I got from our Product Team:

    MySQL needs some basic environment variables too in place of simply pulling the image. You can refer to below article for more information:

    https://hub.docker.com/_/mysql?tab=description

    Also you can check below somehow similar (different DB) topic/example which might be helpful in your use case:

    https://www.mssqltips.com/sqlservertip/6180/create-azure-container-instances-for-sql-server/

    Hope it helps!!!
