SOLVED: mongodb not starting, chown changing ownership of '/data/db' permission denied

[mputic365]

This post is specifically about Rancher Desktop on macOS.

I am running Rancher Desktop 1.13.1 on macOS Sonoma 14.3.1.

When running LibreChat 0.6.10 with docker compose, mongodb was failing to start with the error:

chown changing ownership of '/data/db' permission denied

I tried uncommenting UID and GID in .env, but that did not work.

I was able to resolve the issue and get up and running by applying this relatively easy fix.

Posting just in case it's helpful to someone.
