So I wasn’t having any luck with Node, and thought I’d try spinning up Docker to give the Photostructure server instance a try. Thought I had it but I’m getting an error at startup
Your library directory, /ps/library, is not read/write/execute by user photostructure (userid 501)
The owner of this directory is userid 0, g`0````0```
Please fix the permissions for this bind mount and restart the container.
UID 501 does match my Mac UID so that makes sense. What doesn’t is that it is saying the owner of this directory is uid 0 gid0 which I assume is on the docker side. the start script I used is right from the doc while I test this out:
#!/bin/bash
PSLIBRARY=“$HOME/photostructure_docker” # < CHANGE THIS LINE
mkdir -p “$PSLIBRARY”
IMG=“photostructure/server:alpha”
docker pull $IMG
docker run
–name photostructure
–detach
–restart unless-stopped
–stop-timeout 120 # < gives PhotoStructure 2 minutes to shut down cleanly.
–publish 1787:1787
-e TZ=“${TZ:-$(cat /etc/timezone)}”
-e PUID=“$(id -u)”
-e PGID=“$(id -g)”
-v “$PSLIBRARY”:/ps/library
-v “$HOME”/tmp/foobar:/pictures/ # < EXAMPLE: CHANGE THIS LINE
“$IMG”
When I look in Docker at my environment, I see the following so I’m seeing the PUID of 501
“Env”: [
“TZ=”,
“PUID=501”,
“PGID=20”,
“PATH=/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/opt/photostructure:/opt/photostructure/tools/bin”,
“NODE_VERSION=20.11.1”,
“YARN_VERSION=1.22.19”,
“NODE_ENV=production”
When I look at my actual director permissions I see:
drwxr-xr-x 4 me staff 128 Apr 24 18:45 photostructure_docker
I’m lost. Thoughts?
