<![CDATA[OpenWebUI - Permissions Issue after last 2.2.5 update - cannot create directory /media/ollama-vol]]>After the 2.2.5 update that Set NLTK_DIR env var, my app is unresponsive.
The following is from the error logs:

Jun 27 12:11:06 => Copying static files
Jun 27 12:11:06 => Enabling local ollama
Jun 27 12:11:06 => Ensure directories
Jun 27 12:11:06 => Loading configuration
Jun 27 12:11:06 mkdir: cannot create directory '/media/ollama-vol': Read-only file system
Jun 27 12:11:13 => Healtheck error: Error: connect EHOSTUNREACH 172.18.18.172:8080

I am not sure how to proceed.
The Data Directory is pointing to a volume that I have.
I don't understand how 'Mounts' work. And I don't know how the permissions for 'media' user do as well.

Need help please, I have tried all that I can do and understand. Tried changing ownerships, created directories, moved back the 'Data Directory' back to the default 'Yellow Tent' location, but nothing worked.

Would appreciate some points!

Thank you

I had the directory set to /media/TSYSAI instead of just /media.

Thanks!

Does "mkdir -p /media/TSYSAI/foobar` work ?

TSYSAI

is that the name of your mount? You can always open an app Web Terminal and do ls -l /media . You should have your volume listed there.

I did so while the application was stopped. I started the application and I get:

Nov 23 06:00:29 - => Ensure directories
Nov 23 06:00:29 - => Copying static files
Nov 23 06:00:30 - => Loading configuration
Nov 23 06:00:30 - => Enabling local ollama
Nov 23 06:00:30 - mkdir: cannot create directory '/media/TSYSAI': Read-only file system

The volume is created and added to the application

Otherwise, apps cannot create /media/* directories.
