What is the best way to use server's music files?

[nemonein]

Hi. My music files are stored on /storage/Music directory. Do I have to bind this to docker volume?

    volumes:
      - /storage/Music:/music
      - covers:/var/www/html/public/img/covers
      - search_index:/var/www/html/storage/search-indexes

I tried this, but I get ERROR on koel:doctor.

  Media storage setup (local) ........................................................ ERROR

- /storage/Music:/music

Have you tried using the full path to the Music folder?

What do you mean? It seems like its the full path here?

Sorry, my mistake. Seems to me too that it should work. Is there an issue with file/folder permissions?

I had a really bad time trying to set it up myself for some reason.

OP need to try setting up the mountpoints like this: https://github.com/koel/docker/issues/189#issuecomment-2289956044

For some reason that's what fixed my permission issues

Sorry but I don't see why you needed to change. Do you have any reason why?

A comment on the post says:

It looks like a permission issue. Adding +w on directories solved this for me.

Did you make this change?

No, I set up the volumes outside of the service section with o:bind and type: none and it did fix my permissions issue. No clue exactly why that is as I never had to do this for any other app

Yes, seems very odd to me too. I guess Koel has its secrets.
