Good morning all!
When any event that rebuilds my docker container occurs, my settings.json is removed and my config is lost. Even the back up copy is removed from the same directory. Is there a way to prevent that?

Thanks!!

There should be a mount for files so they are not stored on the container itself. What are you using for running docker? Docker-compose or a gui app?

Thanks for your reply. I used docker compose. This is on container station within a qnap nas.

is there a section on volumemounts?

#

volumes: - /path/to/appdata/config:/config

There is. So what I should be doing is creating and mounting a new volume and editing the path to config to reference the new volume? Should the new volume be attached to the container or outside of it all together?

I use portainer but for compose the " /path/to/appdata/config" should be a real place on the host system
