I also got this

I temporary fixed it, the issue is new python version has no -w arguments anymore and we need to execute the python from wine directly, don't need to change the external libs python natively, my temporary workaround is

1. fix the start.sh file by dumping the Metatrader/start.sh inside container out by docker cp {container_name}:/Metatrader/start.sh ./start.sh
2. Replace this

#!/bin/bash

3. Move it back to the container docker cp ./start.sh {container_name}:/Metatrader/start.sh
4. restart it by docker restart {container_name}
