Unlink error while uploading about send

[davidschuette]

Hey,
This annotation works, but then I cannot map a volume to the uploads to secure them beyond the container instance as the folder name changes on every restart (see default configuration).
I found another fix which is easy to implement:

Changing the FILE_DIR parameter to some nested folder such as /uploads/send and then using the volume mapping <some local folder>:/uploads to map the parent folder. You might have to fix permissions on the local folders, but otherwise this works as intended.

Thank you all for your feedback.

Hello,

Thank you for your quick reply. This sadly did not fix the problem. Even switching to a newly created dedicated volume (not mapped), does not work. Removing the volume declaration fixes the problem, so it has to do something with docker and its permissions. I will be doing some trouble shooting on my own and post any updates in this thread.

Hello, I also encountered the same problem as yours. After I annotated the FILE_DIR parameter in docker-compose, everything worked fine for your reference.

Let me post my solution since this is still a problem to some people.

In my docker-compose.yml I have:

      # For local uploads storage
      FILE_DIR: /uploads

…

    volumes:
      - ./data/send:/uploads

… and then I simply run:

chown 1000:1000 ./data/send

I got the UID:GID from here:

Hi there!

Not sure what is going on here. It may be a permission issue, which is somewhat common with Docker.

To test this, does the same error occur when setting the directory mode to 777?

chmod -R 777 ./uploads

I highly recommend to set it back to an appropriate value after testing, as this setting may be considered insecure.
