Solved Adding Volumes: hostPath does not exist

[Supaiku]

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
