<p>I have this weird error plaguing me.</p>

<p>I am trying to get an activemq pod running with a kubernetes stateful set, volume attached. </p>

<p>The activemq is just a plain old vanila docker image, picked it from here <a href="https://hub.docker.com/r/rmohr/activemq/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https://hub.docker.com/r/rmohr/activemq/</a></p>
