@devtron on Cloudron all apps run in a read-only filesystem, causing this issue. However for things which need to be writeable, we link them into to the read/write section.
What is the use-case, requiring you to move the snapshot.yaml ?@nebulon The use-case is to import my schema (snapshot.yaml) from my local development into the prod environment (cloudron app instance). And vice versa.
In fact, I need to import into the app only once, because I already created my schema locally. It would be tedious to define everything in the app again. -

I think that was a feature in version 8 or lower but is really interesting if it's still supported, can post the link to the documentation. -

Here is the link for their newest version 9

Nice, the old version has a dedicated page on it, and I didn't find it on the new documentation. -

It would be tedious to define everything in the app again.ah I see, if this is a one-time task, you could also put the app in debug mode, which makes the filesystems temporarily read/write (but not persistent across restarts)

@nebulon I put the app in recovery/debug mode. It became writable but got another issue:
"DB_CLIENT" Environment Variable is missing.
I've tried to add the changes in the env file in app/data. It didn't work. After that I tried to start it normally and got a new error with redis:

@devtron the
DB_CLIENTis set and configured in the/app/pkg/start.shwhich also sets up other required settings. So while having the app in debug mode, you either have to run relevant pre-setup commands required fornpx directus schema applyor put that line at the correct place in/app/pkg/start.shand run that whole script.For redis, you can check the services view in your dashboard and manually start it from there first.
