  File browser Quantum is the shiny feature rich fork

    Trying to set that up to try out, but I can’t get it to see/use my config.yaml.

    /srv/filebrowser-new/data/config.yaml

    volumes:

    • /srv/filebrowser-new/data:/config environment:
    • FILEBROWSER_CONFIG=“/config/config.yaml”

    Says ‘config.yaml’ doesn’t exist and will not start. Same thing if I mount the config file directly, instead of just its folder.

    If I remove the env var, it changes to “could not open config file ‘config.yaml’, using default settings” and starts at least. From there I can ‘ls -l’ through docker exec and see that my config is mounted exactly where it’s supposed to be ‘/config/config.yaml’ and has 777 perms, but filebrowser insists it doesn’t exist…

    My config is just the example for now.

    I don’t understand what I could possibly be doing wrong.

      Must not have quotation marks. Removed them and now it’s working.

      Man that’s finicky…

    When the stable release is published, it’s honestly a no brainer. Although Filestash is a good alternative too.

      Ive had some good experience with filestash but recently they swapped to collabora which brought me a host of headaches.

      The Dev is awesome though.

    I was going to query why fork instead of just maintaining, but after reading theose comments I see the problem.

    So, ok, I need to start shifting packages…

    Reckon I can get this going somewhere where I don’t have sudo?

      I doubt it, why dont you have sudo?

  Ah, this makes sense now. I was wondering why it hadn’t been updated in a while, that was my only hangup.

  I saw this the other day as well when i was looking at filebrowsers github looking into seeing if it had SSO support. It’s a shame really.
