Description

I'm trying to backup my instance of ghost, which is running in a container. When I run ghost backup as suggested by the docs, I get a message that "Ghost is not currently running. Would you like to start it?" If I try to start it, I get an error that "Port 2368 is already in use by another program." Looking into it, it seems that the docker image isn't built for running ghost-cli in it.

What's the best way to backup ghost when running in a container?
