Emby on Docker cannot read mounted drive


Recommended Posts

Posted

Hello,

i am a bit new to docker and rusty on linux. Currently, I had emby setup on a container with the following configurations

where UID=1000 is my current user, and I had an external drive with all the media mounted on /media/Backup with owner set to also be my user

and as seen in my configurations, this volume should also be linked to the container path /media/Backup

Unfortunately, I cannot see this path while setuping the library and the container cannot access the drive.

previously, I had emby on a raspberry pi that read the media from the same external drive and I moved the configuration to the new installation, so that I will not lose my metadata.

I don't use docker but it's generally a bad idea to mount anything under '/media/' as the system controls the permissions as sees fit.

Most people mount disks under '/mnt/'  but you can mount it to just about any empty directory...
