Volumes are not working

[subtlecourage]

@brutalbirdie said in Volumes are not working:

@subtlecourage OK so default the volume is mounted with permissions for root.

You can check this in the web terminal:

ls -lah /media/

root@d2ff17d2-7106-48bc-87bc-fab2342c0059:/app/code# ls -lah /media/
total 12K
drwxr-xr-x 1 root root 4.0K Oct  3 20:07 .
drwxr-xr-x 1 root root 4.0K Oct  3 20:07 ..
drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 4.0K Oct  3 20:09 portfolio

But this is wrong. If you check the permissions of /app/data/

ls -lah /app/data/

rwxr-xr-x 4 cloudron cloudron 4.0K Oct  3 20:06 .
drwxr-xr-x 1 root     root     4.0K Oct  3 20:07 ..
drwx------ 3 cloudron cloudron 4.0K Oct  3 20:09 config
drwxr-xr-x 2 cloudron cloudron 4.0K Oct  3 20:06 folders

The user is cloudron.

We can also check which user is running the process:

ps uax

USER         PID %CPU %MEM    VSZ   RSS TTY      STAT START   TIME COMMAND
root           1  0.1  0.0  28480 23648 pts/0    Ss+  20:17   0:00 /usr/bin/python3 /usr/bin/supervisord --configuration /etc/supervisor/supervisord.conf --nodaemon -i syncthing
cloudron      12  0.0  0.0 725144 16408 pts/0    Sl   20:17   0:00 /app/code/syncthing -gui-address=127.0.0.1:3000 -home=/app/data/config -no-browser -auditfile=-

cloudron      24  2.2  0.0 728088 49152 pts/0    SNl  20:17   0:02 /app/code/syncthing -gui-address=127.0.0.1:3000 -home=/app/data/config -no-browser -auditfile=-
root          39  0.0  0.0   4240  3460 pts/1    Ss   20:17   0:00 /bin/bash
root          58  0.0  0.0   5896  2828 pts/1    R+   20:19   0:00 ps uax

and the process is also running as user cloudron.

Now you can simple change the permissions for /media/portfolio

chown -R cloudron:cloudron /media/portfolio

Then reload Syncthing (browser refresh).

Now there is this warning / error hmmmm

Sadly this did not solve my problem

I have followed your guide step by step and I get

I have ran your commands,

and I have restarted the app, twice after running those.

But it still has not done anything

[BrutalBirdie]

@subtlecourage do you know that linux is case sensitive?

You point to /media/Portfolio but from your ls -lah on /media the folder is called portfolio.
Also the error folder path missing is kind of a dead giveaway adding to the Failed to crate folder implying the folder does not exist hence the software tries to crate it.

@brutalbirdie

Ha, always the simplest solution. Thank you.

[BrutalBirdie]

@subtlecourage so all sorted out? Now working as intended?

[subtlecourage]

@brutalbirdie Yup, all sorted and working as intended for now.
I have upvoted your comment above. Thank you.

I'm having a similar issue and, I think that the problem could be that for some reason the app can't access the mounted volume even though it's connected (to Cloudron) properly.

[BrutalBirdie]

@SamGreenwood
Then you should read the whole topic from the start
I also described a permission issue and how to fix it.

TL;DR
By default the mounted volume and folder are with root permission.
These need to be changed to cloudron.

[SamGreenwood]

I got it working

[BrutalBirdie]

@SamGreenwood That's nice to hear, but always share / link the solution!

Just remember how often you searched for a solution and the answer was simply "I solved it" END!

Don't be that guy! Document Solutions!
