Trouble installing via docker on amd64

I hope this is just some bonehead mistake on my part. Feel free to rub my nose in it.

I'm preparing to move my Channels server to an intel box running Ubuntu 24.04 LTS. I'm using these instructions: Channels — Channels DVR Server

With both ":tve" and ":latest", the container repeatedly crashes with

2025-04-08T19:27:48.191258395Z Running Channels DVR..
2025-04-08T19:27:48.193743469Z ../latest/channels-dvr: line 1: syntax error: unterminated quoted string

The docker image is a couple months old, so I doubt that they are the problem. I've re-pulled them a couple of times.

Any suggestions?

Well, the plan worked. By asking for help, I immediately realized what the problem was. I'm migrating from ARM64 to AMD64, and I tried to reuse both the DVR directory and the config directory. Moving the config directory aside got past the problem.
