When running docker compose up I get "Docker socket is not readable by the www-data user. Cannot continue"

Hello @ashrite, welcome to the Nextcloud community!

Likely you did something wrong here

@ashrite

# Set ownership to www-data (UID 33) and group 0
sudo chown -R 33:0 /path/to/your/folder

# Set permissions to 750 (owner rwx, group r-x, others none)
sudo chmod -R 750 /path/to/your/folder

would be interesting to understand where/from which folder you run this command. is /var/run/docker.sock the only file you changed the permission? why - if there is misleading instructions in the docs would be great to point them out

@ashrite

Now the issue is all the containers don’t have permissions. I have given docker group permission to all relevant folders but I’m clearly doing something wrong

which files and folder? please provide ls -al output of /mnt/docker-aio-config and / var/run/docker.sock

As rookie I recommend starting here (and all 101 articles for deeper understanding)

• 101: Self-hosting information for beginners
• 101: backup what and why (not how)

AiO as a Docker-based installation stores it’s data in few pre-defined locations it should be easy to extract it there to start from scratch..
