Hi to All,  
at the startup of docker container i recieve the following error:  
ERROR registrar/registrar.go:374 Writing of registry returned error: sync /usr/share/filebeat/data/registry/filebeat: invalid argument. Continuing...

my compose file contains following entries

filebeat:  
build:  
context: filebeat/  
volumes:  
- ./filebeat/filebeatdata:/usr/share/filebeat/data:rw  
- ./filebeat/config/filebeat.yml:/usr/share/filebeat/filebeat.yml:ro  
- ./logs:/mnt/log

I am running filebeat on Docker on windows. Any chance to help me out here?
