Docker Permissions


Recommended Posts

I seem to run into this issue frequently when adding containers that do not have templates created for Unraid. I've noticed many of the templates for Unraid have PUID and PGID included. However, there are quite a few containers on dockerhub that do not have those parameters listed.

 

The issue I run into is not being able to edit/access files created by the containers. Am I supposed to be adding PGID and PUID to containers even if they don't specify this in their documentation?

PGID / PUID requires support from the container.  It's not just something that works across the board.  It is becoming more prevalent though as the actual authors have come to realize that one distro vs another has different permissions being applied and is a nightmare for the users.
