Container status remains showing as the animated progress bar after SIGHUP  #6486

Expected behavior

When a container receives SIGHUP signal the status shown in the Containers screen in Docker Desktop for Mac should revert to Running once the container has reloaded its configuration

Actual behavior

The status remains as the animated progress bar once the SIGHUP signal has been received and never reverts to Running. The summary for the project/app shows the overall count of running containers correctly however.

Steps to reproduce the behavior

I am using nginxproxy/docker-gen in one container to send SIGHUP signal to another container running nginx:mainline-alpine as reverse proxy to reload the configuration after new SSL cert has been issued via nginxproxy/acme-companion in a third container. This setup is working fine, the configuration gets reloaded correctly, and docker ps command shows the containers as running. However the Containers screen in Docker Desktop shows the animated progress bar as the status for the nginx reverse proxy and the acme-companion containers.

docker-compose.yml

version: '3.9'

services:

  reverse-proxy:
    image: nginx:mainline-alpine
    container_name: reverse-proxy
    volumes:
     - conf:/etc/nginx/conf.d
     - certs:/etc/nginx/certs
     - vhost:/etc/nginx/vhost.d
     - html:/usr/share/nginx/html
    ports:
     - "80:80"
     - "443:443"
    networks:
     - proxy-net
    restart: always

  acme:
    image: nginxproxy/acme-companion
    container_name: acme
    volumes_from:
      - reverse-proxy
    volumes:
      - /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock:ro
      - acme:/etc/acme.sh
    environment:
      - DEFAULT_EMAIL=<my email address>
      - ACME_CA_URI=https://acme.zerossl.com/v2/DV90
      - ZEROSSL_API_KEY=<my ZeroSSL API key>
      - NGINX_DOCKER_GEN_CONTAINER=dockergen
    networks:
      - proxy-net
    restart: always

  dockergen:
    image: nginxproxy/docker-gen
    container_name: dockergen
    command: -notify-sighup reverse-proxy -watch -wait 5s:30s /etc/docker-gen/templates/nginx.tmpl
      /etc/nginx/conf.d/default.conf
    volumes_from:
      - reverse-proxy
    volumes:
      - /var/run/docker.sock:/tmp/docker.sock:ro
      - ./nginx.tmpl:/etc/docker-gen/templates/nginx.tmpl:ro
    networks:
      - proxy-net
    restart: always

volumes:
  certs:
  vhost:
  html:
  acme:
  conf:

networks:
  proxy-net:
    attachable: true

This can be reproduced directly by starting just the nginx reverse proxy container and then using docker kill --signal=SIGHUP reverse-proxy to send the signal to the container, at which point you can see the animated refreshing bar.
