Hi Stefan,

Kolla Ansible is configured to bind mount both files when running Debian:

watcher_api_default_volumes:
  - "{{ node_config_directory }}/watcher-api/:{{ container_config_directory
}}/:ro"
  - "/etc/localtime:/etc/localtime:ro"
  - "{{ '/etc/timezone:/etc/timezone:ro' if ansible_facts.os_family ==
'Debian' else '' }}"
  - "{{ kolla_dev_repos_directory ~
'/watcher/watcher:/var/lib/kolla/venv/lib/python' ~ distro_python_version ~
'/site-packages/watcher' if watcher_dev_mode | bool else '' }}"
  - "kolla_logs:/var/log/kolla/"

Can you share the HostConfig/Binds part of `docker inspect watcher_api`.
For example this is the configuration for placement_api on a non-Debian
host:

        "HostConfig": {
            "Binds": [
                "/etc/kolla/placement-api/:/var/lib/kolla/config_files/:ro",
                "/etc/localtime:/etc/localtime:ro",
                "kolla_logs:/var/log/kolla/:rw"
            ],
