Paperless is not "consuming" files

[flexxipanda]

Hi guys,

I've setup an installed paperless-ng but it does not "consume" the files I put in the consume folder. Basically nothing happens.

I've set it up in a Ubuntu VM using the docker install script.

I mounted a SMB network share to /home/kev/NetShare2/ and in there are two folders "Scan" and "Archiv" which are set to the consume and media folders.

Paperless-ng is installed and running under the user "kev".

I don't know if it is maybe permission problem but it looks alright to me.

kev@kev-VirtualBox:~$ ls -l
drwxr-xr-x 2 kev kev 0 Aug 6 23:12 NetShare2

I also tested to manually delete and save files in there, and it works.

The dockers are also running: https://imgur.com/a/9TdAlfw

The webserver is also running and I can acces it from other devices on the network.

My docker-compose.yml file looks like this: https://pastebin.com/V8KNvVbF and the docker-compose.env like this: https://pastebin.com/pR8TF4fJ (Is it supposed to be that empty?)

Did I do something wrong somewere? Do I miss something? I hope you can help me.

I have the same issue here.

I found a solution. I found the install script to not really work at all. So, I did a clean install of ubuntu and tried it with this guy's install instructions. He's talking about installing it directly to docker but it works with ubuntu as well. With that I managed to make it work with the default consume folder, but after I changed that in the .yml file it stopped working again. Apparently, if you make changes you to need to update it with docker-compose up -d. (Maybe I also ran docker-compose pull again before, I can't remember anymore.)
