I've set up a block storage volume (/mnt/media) and can access it via SSH and SFTP. However, I can not add files to the volume from my app as it's owned by root; I receive a permission denied error.
How can I update the permission so that the site owner can store and view files in /mnt/media?
I did this
sudo chown forge:forge /mnt/media
and, of course, it works. I just wanted to check if that is the right thing to do on a block storage volume.
When I tried this, I get...
chown: invalid user: ‘forge:forge’
Whenever I try to use my rails app to upload an image to the block storage, I get this error message:
Errno::EACCES (Permission denied @ dirsmkdir - /mnt/volume-sgp1-01)
I think it's a similar situation as you have. However, I'm not sure why your solution isn't working...
