TigerGraph Community edition Docker image complains about license

I have downloaded the Community Edition Docker Image from the link received in the email
tigergraph-4.2.0-community-docker-image.tar

After this I performed the steps as given in the documentation to run the image:

  • docker load
  • docker run

When I login to the container to start all services using gadmin start all I get the following output

[Warning] ParameterErr (License has not been set, or not applied yet)
[   Info] Starting EXE
[   Info] Starting CTRL
[   Info] Starting ZK ETCD DICT KAFKA ADMIN GSE NGINX GPE RESTPP KAFKASTRM-LL KAFKACONN CTRL GSQL IFM GUI

There is an error wrt to license and when I go to any of the UI and try to create a graph I get an error saying that no valid license found.

What am I missing? Or do we need a license even for the community image?

Solved this one. The problem was arising because I initially tried to use the published images that initialized the docker volume.

So to fix this do the following:

docker volume rm tg-data
docker run ...

After this it should work.
