Originally created by @HeavenlyEntity on GitHub (Aug 6, 2021).

Expected

I expect the image upload to work when changing the workspace logo also user profile images.

Actual Behavior

I am using docker compose to spin up the container with the following storage ENVs:

- STORAGE_TYPE=local
- STORAGE_IMAGE_TYPE=local
- STORAGE_ATTACHMENT_TYPE=local_secure

This instance works perfectly on my own machine but when I go to upload an image on the deployed container I get:
image

I made sure to include
RUN chown www-data:www-data -R /var/www/bookstack/bootstrap/cache /var/www/bookstack/public/uploads /var/www/bookstack/storage && chmod -R 755 /var/www/bookstack/bootstrap/cache /var/www/bookstack/public/uploads /var/www/bookstack/storage
in my Dockerfile in case it was a permissions thing on the host. Yet still, this is working on my own machine. Can anyone help figure out what the underlying issue is? Using the solidnerd docker image.

Host Details:
Using AWS ECS cluster following the docker context use ... & docker compose up to automate all the deployment processes and pre-reqs.

Hi @HeavenlyEntity,
What operating system are you using on AWS? And does this occur if you don't pass/set the volumes to the host?

Just wondering if something like selinux is at play here.

Looks to be using Linux of some kind tho. There isn't any way for me to find out on AWS ECS, it shows the containers running as a service. There is no EC2 instance nor sign of one. But I do know the launch type is FARGATE.

Volumes are being made here for uploads and public for file uploads. Was told if there wasn't any upload volumes, creating books and shelves won't work as well.

Thanks for the confirmation @HeavenlyEntity. To be honest I had EC2 and ECS mixed up. I have no idea how ECS works, From searching the storage side of things looks pretty complex. Are you doing something specific on the AWS side to supply/mount the storage/volume?

No I just followed the instructions on your docs. But if you look at the
Dockerfile it shows the setting of the volumes but in my docker compose
file its the same as the default set up on the *solidnerd *repo only things
that were added were the environment variables.

Sure, the dockerfile defines some volumes but where/how do they map to outside of the container? From a quick search is that where efs comes in to play? https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonECS/latest/developerguide/efs-volumes.html
Again though, I have no idea about this part of AWS, always find these kind of hosted services to be more trouble than they're worth for the kind of things I run.

Yes it still needs to be fixed. Nobody has commented on it because they
don't know or don't understand what is happening.

@HeavenlyEntity If you're able to advise what i required to be changed in BookStack to fix your specific problem then feel free to open a new issue, referencing this one, with detail regarding the solution and problem it solves.
From my point of view this very much appears to be an issue related to hosting. We can only provide so much support when it comes to more complex hosting arrangements such as ECS. There has been no follow up attempts at providing details of if/how volumes are mapped outside the container which is the only obvious avenue I could see to resolve this.
