      I see from the docs at https://xbackbone.app/configuration.html that local volumes are (should be) supported. When I click the app's documentation link (in cloudron), I get a file or directory not found error message.

      I tried using an already mounted Volume but with no luck. My config.php file looks like this:

       'storage' => [
              'driver' => 'local',
      	    'path'   => '/media/MountName/',
      

      But this doesn't seem to work. I cannot browse any of the files/folders in this volume.

      Could anyone offer some guidance? Thanks!

        I managed to solve this (partially). I needed to mount the file system without the "Read only" flag. The syntax above was correct.

        However, I was disappointed to notice that this app (apparently) makes its own sub folder (named "NeGO3") and only indexes files in this sub folder. Which means that the app (apparently) cannot index and display already existing files in this volume.

        Any way to fix this, or is this app unusable as a web frontend for the files in my backend?

        Thanks again.

          AFAIK, the storage directory is an internal format to XBackBone. You can't drop existing files there.

            @girish Yeah, I noticed. I was hoping this was something like Filerun, still looking for a lightweight browser for the backend...

            Thanks anyway. Now we don't get a 403 when clicking the cloudron documentation button 🙂
