Calibre does not autostart with the container when subfolder is used

[peterNordin]

---

Expected Behavior

Calibre and the content server (if activated) should auto start also when SUBFOLDER is used

Current Behavior

Calibre is not started automatically with the container when I have set the SUBFOLDER environment variable.

In my case SUBFOLDER=/calibreui/ It does start when I manually visit, in my case http://mydocker.host:8080/calibreui in my web browser.

The problem seems to be that in the file /etc/services.d/autostart/run the line websocat -q -n ws://localhost:${CUSTOM_PORT:=3000}/guaclite?token=${TOKEN} does not take into account SUBFOLDER

Changing the line to websocat -q -n ws://localhost:${CUSTOM_PORT:=3000}${SUBFOLDER}guaclite?token=${TOKEN} helped in my case, but of course those changes will be lost whenever the container is updated. And I realize that SUBFOLDER is technically not part of the rdesktop-web base image where this file comes from.

Steps to Reproduce

1. Set SUBFOLDER environment variable in docker compose file
2. Calibre does not start automatically and the content server is unreachable (not running)
3. Manually accessing the web interface from a browser makes Calibre start

Environment

OS: Ubuntu 20.04 CPU architecture: x86_64 How docker service was installed: From official Ubuntu repository

Command used to create docker container (run/create/compose/screenshot)

    image: ghcr.io/linuxserver/calibre

      - 8080:8080
      - 8081:8081
    restart: unless-stopped

This is a bug I've noted and have a fix for in gclient

I don't use the SUBFOLDER but it still does not auto-start in my case. compose

version: "2.1"
services:
  calibre:
    image: linuxserver/calibre
    container_name: calibre
    environment:
      - PUID=1026
      - PGID=100
      - UMASK_SET=002 #optional
    volumes:
      - /volume1/Files/Books:/Files/Books
      - /volume1/docker/Calibre:/config
    ports:
      - 9070:8080
      - 9071:8081
    restart: unless-stopped

If you're not using subfolder, auto start should work. Please open a new issue and fill out the template.

With regards to subfolder related issue, we'll get it fixed but the gclient maintainer is currently unavailable. When he's back we'll merge the necessary fixes.
