Permission Denied Error

[Aman4672]

I got the component through hacs, added the config to the .yaml, and added docker to my user. I am using the same directory in a portainer container just fine

Configuration.yaml

monitor_docker:

• name: Docker containers: monitored_conditions:
  • version
  • containers_running
  • containers_total
  • state
  • status
  • memory

Compose

---

version: "2.1" services: homeassistant: image: ghcr.io/linuxserver/homeassistant container_name: homeassistant network_mode: host environment:

• PUID=1000
• PGID=1000
• TZ=america/new_york volumes:
• /media/sauron/Erebor/Smaug/HomeAssistant:/config
• /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock restart: unless-stopped

The problem is that /var/run/docker/sock is owned by root (and group docker): $ ls -l /var/run/docker.sock srw-rw---- 1 root docker 0 apr 2 10:43 /var/run/docker.sock

And you are starting your container with PUID/PGID of 1000.

Normally outside docker, you can add to the uid=1000 the "docker" group as: $ sudo usermod -a -G docker

Only this doesn't work in the container (unless you modify the Dockerfile)

Otherwise you can enable TCP/IP (see the Q&A of the main page) with using another container like: https://github.com/Tecnativa/docker-socket-proxy

I set the Puid and PGiD to the correct values for me, and it appears to be working. Thank you.
