[Nextcloud] App Updates are not persistent

[matthiasbaldi]

Hi
Almost everthing works great incl. Redis cache etc. Thanks for that great images!
But when I update apps wich I have activated manually (i.e. Groupfolders) it would only update the app in the active container. If I do a docker-compose down and a docker-compose up -d (cold start) then the app updates are lost and I have to update the stuff again.

Is that a bug or a bad configuration on my system or just wanted?
How can I prevent this phenomen?
Thanks.

In my Nextcloud configuration the writeable Apps folder is e.g. "/apps2"

config.php (excerpt)

'apps_paths' =>
  array (
    0 =>
    array (
      'path' => '/nextcloud/apps',
      'url' => '/apps',
      'writable' => false,
    ),
    1 =>
    array (
      'path' => '/apps2',
      'url' => '/apps2',
      'writable' => true,
    ),
  ),

So you have to add /apps2 to your volumes in docker. So the folder is persistent:

docker-compose.yml (excerpt)

volumes:                                     
    - /etc/localtime:/etc/localtime:ro         
    - ./data:/data                             
    - ./config:/config                         
    - ./apps:/apps2 

Hope that helps you for your Nextcloud instance.

@hoellen Oh thank you.
I had the mounting into the container but I didn't set the config.php configuration.
Thanks a lot.
