Describe issue

Initially, I got the error:

Error: failed to start container: Error response from daemon: error while creating mount source path '/host_mnt/Users/<me>/.docker/run/docker.sock': mkdir /host_mnt/Users/<me>/.docker/run/docker.sock: operation not supported

After some searching around, I started running act with --container-daemon-socket -, which got past this problem. Unfortunately, it sees to have caused another problem which is that jobs using container have all of their steps run in the specified container image.

For example in this workflow:

jobs:
  artefacts:
    name: Upload artefacts
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    container: ghcr.io/guidionops/terraform-cloud-deployer:0.1.2
    steps:
      - name: Checkout code
        uses: actions/checkout@v4
      - name: Zip up the Lambdas
        run: |
          mkdir -p dist
          cp -r lambdas/* dist/
          pip install -r dist/requirements.txt -t dist/
          cd dist
          zip -r ../lambdas.zip *
      - name: Archive artifacts
        uses: actions/upload-artifact@v4
        with:
          name: build-and-terraform
          path: |
            lambdas.zip
            *.tf
          retention-days: 2

the steps "Checkout code" and "Zip up the Lambdas" run fine, but the "Archive artifacts" step fails because node is unavailable in the ghcr.io/guidionops/terraform-cloud-deployer:0.1.2 image. All of these steps work fine in Github Actions, since the actions/upload-artifact@v4 action does not try to run in the container above.
