Permission Error in logs and WebUI

[drchino]

I've deployed v2 on Docker on my Synology but I keep seeing the errors below in the logs:

warning: unable to access '/root/.config/git/ignore': Permission denied warning: unable to access '/root/.config/git/attributes': Permission denied

When I load the WebUI, it gives permission errors there too. See below for more details of those.

I'm running this with the PGID and PUID of 1000, when I've tried my own PGID and PUID it just crashes the container and won't start. I've checked the folder permissions for "Games" on the Synology NAS and they seem fine. I've tried a chown 1000:1000 and can see that this is the owner of the folders now. There are read and write permissions for all users and groups too. Unless I'm wrong, Linux isn't my strong point!

PermissionError: [Errno 13] Permission denied: '/games'

Post your docker config / yaml. Was Docker started with root permissions and did you define your /volume in the configs.

Thanks, see below for the details.

services: ownfoil: container_name: ownfoil image: a1ex4/ownfoil:v2 environment:

• PUID=1000
• PGID=1000 volumes:
• /volume1/Switch:/games
• /volume1/docker/ownfoil:/app/config ports:
• "8465:8465"

Confirm UID/GUID: https://mariushosting.com/synology-how-to-find-uid-userid-and-gid-groupid/

check if you see "ownfoil.db" in - /volume1/docker/ownfoil:/app/config - that means it has access to r/wr to that folder. If so try moving the "Switch" folder under docker folder

• /volume1/docker/ownfoil/Switch: /games

confirm "Switch" folder lower/uppercase naming matches 1:1 check "Switch" folder user permissions ~ root or admin access (same access privilege's as Docker)

Thank you! It turned out to be a permission issue on the games folder. Everything was fine in the docker folder but the Switch folder didn't have the right permissions. I checked through and changed this and everything is working great.

Thanks for you help.
