On Synology with Docker, help me understand Docker, Containers and Permission

[nsar]

Hello Guys,

i have a Synology DS218+ and i’m hoping to run containers on it as the way i wish

i set up nzbgetvpn and and created a specific user for docker containers, and created some sharedfolders that new user can access.

I then ssh-ed into the NAS and created the NZBGet docker using the following command

docker run -d \

–cap-add=NET_ADMIN \

–device=/dev/net/tun \

–name=“nzbget-vpn” \

-v /volume1/nzbget/data:/data \

-v /volume1/docker/nzbget:/config \

-e VPN_ENABLED=yes \

-e VPN_USER=MYEMAIL \

-e VPN_PASS=MYPASSWORD \

-e VPN_PROV=nordvpn \

-e STRICT_PORT_FORWARD=no \

-e ENABLE_PRIVOXY=yes \

-e LAN_NETWORK=192.168.178.1/24 \

-e NAME_SERVERS=8.8.8.8,8.8.4.4 \

-e DEBUG=false \

-e UMASK=00 -e PUID=1031 -e PGID=100 -p 6789:6789 jshridha/docker-nzbgetvpn:latest

That appeared to be successful as I can login to the NZBGet instance without any issues, browse the interface, and configure settings but when i categorie on NZBget interface for another sharefolder /volume1/usenet (Specific user has RW acceses) I’m getting the following error in NZBGet

Could not create directory /volume1/usenet/nameofcontent -/_unpack: could not create directory :

I assume i’m having a permissions issue.

have I done something stupid, or missed anything obvious?

that’s not our container. you’ll need to ask jshridha

[nsar]

thats why i wrote the post on General and he doesnt have any idea about synology nas

im just looking for some help, facing hard times here

[driz]

I’m just not sure how any of us would know how he handles permissions with his container. I feel like I’ve set your expectations sufficiently so, I wish you the best in finding the answer to your query! (our forums aren’t very active, you might want to join our discord and ask in #other-support )

[nsar]

thank you for that. but theres no #other-support on discord

[driz]

it’s the one with the words “other-support”

[nsar]

but thats what i see

[driz]

yes, because you didn’t read yet. go back to discord and read the message you got

[nsar]

sorry but theres no message to me…

[driz]

bro it’s literally in the #new-members channel you have highlighted, read the most recent message (very bottom) the one to you is the one that says
