I was able to proceed from my last issue and now I can run actor-messenger and postgres in a multi-container environment with docker-compose.
The problem now is that when actor is running an Access Denied Exception is thrown. Have you encountered this same issue when running it on a docker container? Any help is very much appreaciated. Thanks in Advance.

This is the stack trace that is throwing the exception:

This is fix now. I need to set the permission of the folder from the host machine (ie macosx) so that docker can do the rw operations for user/group 'actor'.
