Hello,

Off Topic.

I have similar setup running via Snap with Windows 11 / Hyper-V / Ubuntu Server 24. Refer here → Installation Advice - #7 by NaXal

Here, I run PhotoPrism via docker / docker compose in similar manner, as you have described.

So I am sure, Docker / Docker compose does work with external SMB share mounts with Hyper-V

Can you please elaborate a little like your mounting process and that fstab entry? Also your compose file, how does it look.

I am no expert but docker can mount external SMB mounts directly in a container. I have not tried that, but just a heads up. Since that is said to be more secure than my process of mounting on OS level with 777 permissions and fault tolerant when OS fails to mount but container starts on mount location in anyway.

Thanks.
