[burninrubber1000-svg]

Hello,

I'm having trouble to use the open cloud docker version (not compose) for personal use.
After logging in, i get Access denied, and trying again results in an endless loop not able to enter user credentials but immediatly refused.
The Webdeveloper console shows
https://opencloud.home.neumn:9200/ocs/v1.php/cloud/capabilities?format=json -> Error 500, not 401
the logs show following

(for completeness)
At some point before, i was struggling with volume permissions, and i saw info regarding permissions for a user 1000:1000, i was able to fix things and it did run under that first created user with id 1000. But as a definitive setup, i want to run it under another user and i use the option -u "$(id -u):$(id -g)" \
. i don't get these permission errors anymore though, but i get the error from above. i just mention it, but it's maybe not relevant.

Please try to repeat the opencloud init step after fixing the permissions.

Hello,
What do you mean with 'after fixing the permissions'?
The docker volumes are setup to point to a cifs mount point. The user with UID 1002, which runs the docker statement has the necessary permissions on that folder. After the init step, i see the config and data folders correctly created.

Can you try that without the cifs mount? I think that it the reason.
