    Server log:

    POST /api/v1/volumes 400 Bad Request hostPath does not exist. Please create it on the server first 6.257 ms - 107
    

    However, the path exists, is chown'ed to yellowtent and has permissions 777.

    It's a filesystem - a secondary data drive (SSD HDD)

      Do you see any further logs around that in the box.logs / system logs when trying to add this volume?

        @nebulon I found that I could add files within the /srv/ directory via symlink as talked about here:
        https://forum.cloudron.io/topic/7619/filesystem-mount-inside-container/7

        Not sure why I could only add directories in the /srv/

          Ah, I guess the error message could be more descriptive. Currently there is a hard-coded allowlist of paths on the filessystem to be used as volumes, to avoid accidents where someone might add system folders. The list is at https://git.cloudron.io/cloudron/box/-/blob/master/src/volumes.js#L57
