Thank you do much for creating this. Is it normal to have to create the `logs` folder in the `appdata/eedisinsight` on first start?

Yes , it have some folders :

 

You can remove redisinsight binded folder in container if you want,

but then will be no data saved after container updated

there seems to be permission problems installing in from scratch

chmodding it makes no difference and chown'ing it gives other errors.

 

What fixed it for me was adding some variables:

PUID:99

PGID:100

UMASK:000

checked again just

 chmod 777 redisinsight 

fix the issue 

tried chmod 777 /mnt/user/appdata/redisinsight/ and that didn't work.

What worked was adding these 3 variables/:

PUID:99
PGID:100
UMASK:000

I tried both solutions in this thread, neither work for me. I'm getting the exact same error:
