Owncloud under docker.

vcp_ai · 30. Juli 2018

HI, I've installed owncloud under docker using the 'official source' :
https://hub.docker.com/r/owncloud/server/
It works as expected, but I've not been able to use a OMV shared folder as a storage path for owncloud.

All data seems to be in (omv path) /var/lib/docker/volumes

I've passed a shared folder to the container and mount it as /ownclouddata and it is there, but I can not find the way to say owncloud to use that mountpoint for its data.

Can anybody point me how to change it ??

Regards

Persistent data

All data beyond what lives in the database (file uploads, etc) is stored within the default volume /var/www/html. With this volume, ownCloud will only be updated when the file version.php is not present.

-v /<mydatalocation>:/var/www/html

For fine grained data persistence, you can use 3 volumes, as shown below.

-v /<mydatalocation>/apps:/var/www/html/apps installed / modified apps
-v /<mydatalocation>/config:/var/www/html/config local configuration
-v /<mydatalocation>/data:/var/www/html/data the actual data of your ownCloud

Did you use the full path???

/srv/dev-disk-by-label/ownclouddata

Thanks Mike.

Not sure if I can understand what you say...

From inside OMV shell, I can see docker(Owncloud) data nder /var/lib/docker/volumes.
-that means that owncloud data is filling mi OMV main disk.

I've shared (from OMV) another disk/filesystem and passed it to docker mount as /ownclouddata
- from inside docker shell I can access this mountpoint and write to it.

From inside docker shell on /var/www/html I only have index.html

Host Path = Shared Volume
Container path = docker volume

This maps the the path of the docker container to a shared path on your server.

I have that working. Mounted as /ownclouddata

What I need is a way to tell owncloud to use thata mount for its data.....

You must set path like here:

@grusu
Finally I've got it to work using your suggestion.
I tested this before, without success. It seems that mount point /srv/dev-disk-by.... should be empty for owncloud to use it.

After starting a new installation, it worked as expected.

Thanks again
