Hi All,

I am using docker version of filecloud and have mounted external drive
and have also made sure that the permissions are RW (which is default)
in portainer.  However, it always shows not writable under admin
panel. Please provide any suggestions.

PS: Other containers can use the volume without any issue. I can log
into docker shell and write the mounted volume successfully.

Is the path owned by the correct user? I don't know what user
Filecloud runs as in Docker, but existing permissions carry over. For
instance, Nextcloud uses the standard webserver user/group, `www-
data`, which is UID/GID `33:33` and all files have to be owned by that
user or otherwise accessible via ACLs to work. Filecloud is likely the
same.

Are you using the official docker image and did you run the container
in privileged mode?
