NEXTCLOUD_MOUNT env causes incorrect binds in nextcloud child container

[pjneder]

Hi there. I encountered a weird thing while setting up my AIO. I can get NC up and running in general. Pretty vanilla setup. I am running this on unraid from the official app store. I create a variable for NEXTCLOUD_MOUNT for /mnt/user/Paperless/

It does not work correctly after the AIO creates and starts all of the child containers. When I inspect the mastercontainer I see this, which looks correct:

    "Env": [
                "NEXTCLOUD_DATADIR=/mnt/user/nextcloud/",
                "NEXTCLOUD_MOUNT=/mnt/user/Paperless/",

When I inspect the aio-nextcloud child container I see this:

        "HostConfig": {
            "Binds": [
                "nextcloud_aio_nextcloud:/var/www/html:rw",
                "/mnt/user/nextcloud/:/mnt/ncdata:rw",
                "/mnt/user/Paperless/:/mnt/user/Paperless/:rw"
            ],

That mount is not correct and therefore does not work. I expect to see:

                "/mnt/user/Paperless/:/mnt/ncdata/local:rw"

I have poked around some but I am not enough of a docker composer to know where to find or fix this. I expect it is self inflicted somehow because this seems like a commonly used feature.

Thoughts?

Hi, maybe this helps you to understand how the variables are used inside AIO:

all-in-one/manual-install/latest.yml

Lines 125 to 129 in a803d1c

	volumes:
	- nextcloud_aio_nextcloud:/var/www/html:rw
	- ${NEXTCLOUD_DATADIR}:/mnt/ncdata:rw
	- ${NEXTCLOUD_MOUNT}:${NEXTCLOUD_MOUNT}:rw
	- ${NEXTCLOUD_TRUSTED_CACERTS_DIR}:/usr/local/share/ca-certificates:ro

Thank you for that reply. That is helpful to see how it is coded in the yml file. Now I have to go do some other thinking. It does not make a ton of sense that a docker would do a bind to a directory it does not know about. Others got this working eventually so I need to sort out what I am missing.

OK. I got it to work. Thanks for the help. I was making a mistake in my pathing in Nextcloud when trying to mount the LOCAL storage directory.
