Changing NextCloud directories after installation

Electric Eel, NextCloud App, NGINX proxy. All working. However, I did a stupid thing and pointed the user data directory to an internal ixVolume. I now can’t change this option. Is there a way, or do I need to remove and re-install? I’d hate to do that, but I don’t see any other way.

Thanks,
Kelly

You will have to reinstall. You cannot change from ixvolumes to host paths on an existing installation

Well, I removed the app. Now, trying to re-install it and it fails with

Error response from daemon: invalid mount config for type “bind”: bind source path does not exist: /mnt/.ix-apps/app_mounts/nextcloud/postgres_data

I think that some of the old install is still there. How do I forcfully remove it? Migrate the apps to a different volume and then back?

I figured it out. I am such a dope. The new dataset I created for data storage was set to ReadOnly. SMH.
