`Auto configuration MQSC definitions contain invalid syntax or illegal attributes` on first startup

[erwinkramer]

I'm mounting - ../docker-ibmmq/configure.mqsc:/etc/mqm/configure.mqsc.

Which has the following line (just this line, but it gives the error on any content i put in it):

-- test

I'm also mounting the data location for persistence: - ${host_data_config_path}/ibmmq/:/mnt/mqm.

Now the first time i run the container, and the data location is still empty, i will get this error and it will reboot my container:

Auto configuration MQSC definitions contain invalid syntax or illegal attributes

If i start over again, but with a completely empty configure.mqsc, then it works fine. Subsequently i can add commands and everything into my configure.mqsc and it keeps working, as long as i don't remove the data location i mentioned earlier. So, it seems on initial setup of the structure, it cannot handle any mqsc file, no matter how it looks like (except completely empty).
