I’ve been trying to get Filebrowser Quantum running to access my storage.
The dataset has access set to the Group "apps” and when I add it in the config it goes through, but then the app doesn’t have access to it. Adding www-data to the root didn’t change this either - so I could at least see the subdatasets even if I can’t access them.
For context:
I already had a Filebrowser instance running on the same storage dataset, but the App borked itself somewhere 4 months ago - can’t be updated, doesn’t start every time etc.
The settings of the storage part:
It is also strange that it doesn’t allow me to just have a . as root in the mount path.
How it shows up:
I kinda doubt that this is a permission issue, because Filebrowser worked just fine like that for 3 years. Did I misconfigure the link itself?
Thanks for your help!
I seemed to have fixed it, by just deleting the install and redoing it again.
I accidentally used a ix-vloume on the first start up for storage and then change it when I noticed. BUt after I changed that key to a host path it somehow couldn’t fix itself anymore. And it always said that it can’t find the mount path even though it existed.
Super weird.
This is how the log looked like when it failed:
