Docker user chown question

Another issue that I might spring it on you, your docker are changing "emby/config" chwon to BIN.

"emby/config" is setup as 1000:1000 (User). Whenever I use your docker, it changes to BIN user every single time. 

Maybe its intended? idk.

Cool, its no big deal actually since it still works.

 

Just that my

docker compose file = 1000:1000 (user)

emby/config folder = user (ls -l to check) 

 

After running your beta, emby/config (ls -l) changes to (BIN) user.

Thanks for the info. I've passed this along to our package developer so that he can comment on it.

@gokuz Where are you running the ls command? On the host machine or in the docker container? The container has no idea what your host users are, 1000:1000 inside the container is probably just bin:bin, so there's nothing to worry about. I can check later what 1000:1000 is here if needed.

On the host machine. 

Yea it still works but I noticed this anomaly when i switched to/from linuxserver's emby docker.

Their docker didn't change user so I found it weird yours does.

We chown to allow people to quickly switch the user they want it running as and make sure the config is writable.

In any case, I just realized what's going on. You're using PUID and PGID variables, when we want UID and GID, please refer to our documentation: https://hub.docker.com/r/emby/embyserver

TIL, uid is different than puid.

But I do not have UID setup. Guess its a fluke lol. Thanks, solved.

If you don't specify it, it defaults to 2:2, I thought this was daemon:daemon almost everywhere, but I guess it's bin:bin on your distro (on mine bin:bin is 1:1).
