can't run AWSim in a docker container

[HuaweiAlgolux]

Following this AWSIM simulator setup tutorial, I downloaded and extracted the AWSim binary on my computer at ~/share_dir. This folder is also shared with the container. After I launched the container that has ROS Galatic installed, then I cd ~/share_dir in the container, and run ./AWSIM.x86_64, then I saw the following error:

Attached is the Player.log I found at ~/.config/unity3d/Tier\ IV/E2ESimulator/Player.log
Player.log

That's a problem:
error: XDG_RUNTIME_DIR not set in the environment

looks like you might have a problem with configuration of your docker image to run graphical programs. What docker image do you use ?

[HuaweiAlgolux]

just a docker image we created to run Autoware Universe. Are there specific requirements? Where can I find those requirements so that I can fix the issue myself?

I'm not familiar with the docker for Autoware Universe. I think you need to have a GPU accelerated conatiner for running simulation : https://github.com/NVIDIA/nvidia-docker .

But maybe for now it might be easier to run Autoware in the container and Simulation in your local system ? I think ros2 communication should be available
