Cannot start docker container

[fraggom]

Hi everyone,

I am running into issues starting the docker container. It failed due to issues with the bind mounts and I couldn't find a solution. Logs say

Microsoft.Extensions.Hosting.Internal.Host Unhandled exception. System.UnauthorizedAccessException: Access to the path ... is denied.

My compose looks the following:

version: '3.9'
services:
  ghostfoliosidekick:
    image: vibenl/ghostfoliosidekick
    container_name: ghostfolio-sidekick
    networks:
      - ghostnet
    volumes:
      - /volume1/docker/ghostfoliosidekick/config:/gfsk/config
      - /volume1/docker/ghostfoliosidekick/import:/gfsk/import
    environment:
      GHOSTFOLIO_URL: ghostfolio-app:3333
      GHOSTFOLIO_ACCESTOKEN: abc
      FILEIMPORTER_PATH: /gfsk/import
      CONFIGURATIONFILE_PATH: /gfsk/config

networks:
  ghostnet:
    name: dockernet
    external: true

I was trying different destinations but always the same result. I was as well trying to start the container with user flags, but didn't work as well. Maybe you have an idea? thanks!

Your configuration seems fine, the only things I can think of are:

1. Perhaps adding HTTPS:// before the url
2. Double check the access token
3. You can connect to the official ghostfolio instance and see if that works.

I have an integration test that tests to a live system, perhaps have a look at that for inspiration?

Next week I'll see if I can add some more helpful logging

Thanks for the quick reply! So far, I am pretty sure this is a matter of file/folder permissions of the mounted folders.

Again, the logs:

the binds are mounted into the docker container with the respective owner flags of the host system. From what I see in the dockerhub, dotnet is running inside the container with a very specific uid:

ENV APP_UID=1654 ASPNETCORE_HTTP_PORTS=8080 DOTNET_RUNNING_IN_CONTAINER=true

Just a guess, since I am not an expert on this field, but I assume this could be the issue. I wonder no one else had this issue?!

I'm not a docker expert, but here is my config

ghostfoliosidekick: image: vibenl/ghostfoliosidekick:latest container_name: Ghostfolio-Ghostfoliosidekick hostname: ghostfoliosidekick security_opt:

• no-new-privileges:true environment:
• GHOSTFOLIO_URL=url
• GHOSTFOLIO_ACCESTOKEN=abc
• FILEIMPORTER_PATH=/var/lib/data
• CONFIGURATIONFILE_PATH=/var/lib/data/config.json restart: always volumes:
• /volume1/docker/ghostfolio/sidekick:/var/lib/data:r depends_on: ghostfolio: condition: service_started

Thank you! :-) I found the issue. My problem was the configuration file path pointing at a folder instead of a file: So it was CONFIGURATIONFILE_PATH: /gfsk/config instead of CONFIGURATIONFILE_PATH: /gfsk/config/config.json
