mv: can't rename '/etc/nginx/vhost.d/example.com.new': Resource busy

Hi there,

Thanks for this really great container. I am using a few containers and I use docker-compose v2 syntax. Some of them have custom vhost.d config files (I'm using the Per-VIRTUAL_HOST configuration).

So, I guess there is some conflicts appearing when the container tries to generate the vhost config to pass the validation. Indeed, when I keep my vhost config files in the compose file, I encounter the following error :
mv: can't rename '/etc/nginx/vhost.d/example.com.new': Resource busy

And this prevents the validation of the given domain.

I managed to do the generation, by disabling temporarily my custom vhost conf files, running the container, then re-enabling them. But this is not really a solution, and I'm not sure that the renewal will work.

Is it a bug from the container, or a configuration I am missing ?

I suppose you have mounted the specific file in the docker-compose.yml file

volumes:
- '/local/path/to/vhost.d/example.com:/etc/nginx/vhost.d/example.com'

That prevents the letsencrypt docker to rename the file /etc/nginx/vhost.d/example.com.new to /etc/nginx/vhost.d/example.com. As solution you could mount the whole local vhost.d directory.

volumes:
- '/local/path/to/vhost.d:/etc/nginx/vhost.d'

I think this bug is invalid.
