rocker/rstudio login authentication about rocker

hmm, are you sure you have run docker pull recently? I cannot replicate this, seems to be working for me. I'm testing on rocker/rstudio image id 7c30474e948c, which I believe is the one currently on the Hub -- you should be able to view your image id by doing: docker images.

If docker pull rocker/rstudio doesn't fix it, let me know the image id and the output of docker logs <container-id> where <container-id> is the id shown for the container (e.g. when it first executes, or check under docker ps, with apologies if I'm rehashing familiar commands)

Yes I've got image 7c30474e948c. Do I need to to adduser first, or is that taken care of by the dockerfile?

Here's the docker logs, I'm deploying on digitalocean:

Ah, spotted it. You should be using -e USER=username with an = and not a :. You're getting the default settings because the env var doesn't get assigned.

Of course, thanks for your help!
