/dbox "Permission Denied"
leighorf opened this issue · 1 comments
I did a docker system prune -a before running the following command:
docker run --detach --name=dropbox -e DROPBOX_UID=15321 -e DROPBOX_GID=700 --net="host" -v "/data1/orf/dropbox/.dropbox:/opt/dropbox/.dropbox" -v "/data1/orf/dropbox/Dropbox:/opt/dropbox/Dropbox" otherguy/dropbox:latest
It runs. The first time it did the chmod -R on the volume, which took a while. But:
orf: /home/lorf/build/git/docker-dropbox docker logs --follow dropbox

Couldn't start Dropbox.
This is usually because of a permissions error. Storing your home folder on a network share can also cause an error.

PermissionError: [Errno 13] Permission denied: '/dbox'
What I find interesting is /dbox is the original mount point that janeczku created, which has been changed to /opt/dropbox with the otherguy container. Is /dbox hardwired into the dropbox binary? I kind of doubt it. Where could this "remnant" of the original dropbox distribution be? I can't find any reference to /dbox anywhere. But, in the error file, it's clearly trying to reference stuff in /dbox.
OK I found the problem! The /dbox reference was in the .dropbox/info.json file that was written by the janeczku distribution. I nuked the entire .dropbox directory and re-ran, and no longer received this error. The info.json file now contains the proper /opt/dropbox link.
