Issues logging in after setup - Riffy - 2023-09-07

So currently after I setup my server and get it working. If I logout of the admin account I setup to just a user account it gives me a choice of one server to pick from so I pick it and get told it's offline. If I then restart the container it wants me to set it up again. So I am guessing the config files aren't being written and going into the folder I set for them it's empty.

I am using 10.8.10 loaded inside of truenas so a linux docker container. I have tried logging in via chrome, firefox and edge on both my local machine, a remote machine and my cell phone without any success outside of the first time setup connect.

Make sure that you mounted a permanent directory for /config. What does the configuration for your container look like?

Morning, and thank you. On the way home last night it dawned on me what I likely was doing wrong. I had the transcode, config, and cache sharing the same folder assuming they made subfolders on there own. So I think one of the jobs likely from the transcode was wiping the folder out when it finished with a task and would kill the other files. Once I broke them into different subfolders myself it worked without any issue. Rebooted it a few times, had people test it, and checked this morning and it's still working. So I am guessing that was my issue.
