Changing the media directory where the consumed files are stored

[Schrello]

Hey, :)

During the installation I specified /home/$USER/Documents/Paperless as the directory where the consumed files should be stored.

Now I want paperless-ng to store the scanned files on my mounted nfs /mnt/Paperless.

My understanding of the documentation and Max's block is that I need to add the line PAPERLESS_MEDIA_ROOT=/mnt/Paperless in the docker-compose.env.

After the change of docker-compose.env I restart docker using docker-compose restart.

But paperless-ng keeps saving the files in the old directory.

Can anyone help me?

I am using paperless-ng 1.5 and Docker to run it.

Try docker-compose down and docker-compose up -d.
With restart only the container is stopped and restarted!
