Getting the following error: Error response from daemon: invalid volume specification: '/mnt/immich/library/3-SocialMedia:ro:rw': invalid mount config for type "bind": invalid mount path: 'ro' mount path must be absolute .yml exerpt

As far as I can tell I am using an absolute path.I'm not sure where the extra :rw is coming from in the error message either.

Ya, thats literally the doc I was following. I'm missing something but I don't understand what it is. 
  - ${UPLOAD_LOCATION}:/usr/src/app/upload
      - /etc/localtime:/etc/localtime:ro
      - /mnt/immich/library/3-SocialMedia:ro
  - ${UPLOAD_LOCATION}:/usr/src/app/upload
      - /etc/localtime:/etc/localtime:ro
      - /mnt/immich/library/3-SocialMedia:ro
From my copy above. I followed the example under Mount Docker Volumes, added the ro flag at the end to make sure its read only. But now when I docker compose upI get the error message. I can't even get to the next step.

You’re definitely not following it. You haven’t specified a mount point in the container Please re read the docs very carefully
