docker run gitlab-ce with '--volume' option set get error: initdb: could not create directory "...": Permission denied

Created by: mdluo

I have docker-machine installed on OS X 10.11 and use

docker run --detach \
    --hostname gitlab.example.com \
    --publish 80:80 --publish 2222:22 \
    --name gitlab \
    --restart always \
    --volume /Users/user/Sites/gitlab/config:/etc/gitlab \
    --volume /Users/user/Sites/gitlab/logs:/var/log/gitlab \
    --volume /Users/user/Sites/gitlab/data:/var/opt/gitlab \
    gitlab/gitlab-ce:latest

to run the latest gitlab-ce image.

I have chmod -R 777 /Users/user/Sites/gitlab

but still got error like this:

If I remove those --volume lines, it goes alright with 0 error.

But I really need to mount the data up :(
