[solved] Can't add a local datasource (import existing data)

[Jean_Bono]

For first post, please answer the questions below!

Describe your issue in detail

Hi everyone,
I’m trying to add an existing shared folder to Pydio but i can’t (“Please make sure the parent folder is writable by the application”),
The error itself is self explanatory and the process of adding a datasource is well documented in Pydio Help , but I can’t get why am i receiving that error.
I’m trying to use - /srv/dev-disk-by-uuid-efadb681-0523-4425-867e-7638c65a111f/Data/movies/pydiotest as datasource and as per my setup ,Pydio has writing right till /srv/dev-disk-by-uuid-efadb681-0523-4425-867e-7638c65a111f/Data , so it should be ok

environment:
  - PUID=1000
  - PGID=100

user ID 1000 has R/W access to the Data folder mentioned above and other Services using the same user are able to R/W there .

What version of Cells are you using?

4.3.6

What is the server OS? Database name/version? Browser name or mobile device description (if issue appears client-side)?

Open Media Vault (7.x) is the OS,
Pydio has been installed using Docker/compose:
environment:
- PUID=1000
- PGID=100
- TZ=Etc/UTC
- EXTERNALURL=yourdomain.url
- SERVER_IP=0.0.0.0 #optional
volumes:
- /Pydioconfig:/config
- /srv/dev-disk-by-uuid-efadb681-0523-4425-867e-7638c65a111f/Data/movies
- /srv/dev-disk-by-uuid-efadb681-0523-4425-867e-7638c65a111f/Data/series
- /srv/dev-disk-by-uuid-efadb681-0523-4425-867e-7638c65a111f/Data/movies/pydiotest

What steps have you taken to resolve this issue already?

Going through the documentation,
Verifying access rights to folder again and again

Thank you

hi,

I fixed the problem, the point was that:
From:
1/

• /srv/dev-disk-by-uuid-efadb681-0523-4425-867e-7638c65a111f/Data/movies/pydiotest
  To:
  2/
• /srv/dev-disk-by-uuid-efadb681-0523-4425-867e-7638c65a111f/Data/movies/pydiotest:/hdd25

1/ was making the disk visible, but 2/ is needed to make it usable
The case can be closed
