Can't write to directory?

ℹ️ Support
,
1

so I’m trying to deploy a docker nextcloud on my NUC, and I’ve tried both linuxserver/nextcloud and nextcloud under docker hub, same problem.

I want to point nextcloud storage to a unionfs plexdrive, so I mounted /var/www/html in container to /mnt/unionfs/files on my host machine. the /mnt/unionfs/ are accessible by all my other docker containers such as radarr, sonarr, Plex, etc, they have no problem whatsoever. however as long as I point nextcloud to that directory, I’m either getting a ‘general error 10, disk I/O error’, or getting a ‘cant read or write to /var/www/html’ error.
I tried to point nextcloud to other directory and it works fine.

I tried to set nextcloud docker container to run as root, to run in privileged mode, to have PUID/PGID set to 0 (root) or 1000 (my user). none of them solve the problem.

it’s driving me crazy… can anyone help me with it?

much appreciated.

Seem to me rights acces are badly set: usually nextcloud directorie and data directories need to be set for user www-data

so how should I fix this?
I’m sorry I have very limited linux skills, all I could do is execute some simple automated scripts…

4

log via ssh,

cd to your diretory

use command chown as root user

chown -R www-data:www-data

5

so do I run it on host or in docker container?

6

I pass … Not using docker because of those behaviors …

Maybee someone else can help you, or directly on docker community support …

Sorry
