Can't Start (Docker)

I've made some changes to my Immich Server. It's in a Proxmox LCX Container. Proxmox has a ZFS Pool and I've mounted the drives respectively.
mp0: /Store/immich_photos,mp=/mnt/immich_photos
mp1: /Store/immich_db,mp=/mnt/immich_db
mp0: /Store/immich_photos,mp=/mnt/immich_photos
mp1: /Store/immich_db,mp=/mnt/immich_db
1. Moved photos to immich_photos 2. Moved DB to immich_db In my .env I've done:
# The location where your uploaded files are stored
UPLOAD_LOCATION=/mnt/immich_photos

# The location where your database files are stored. Network shares are not supported for the dat>
DB_DATA_LOCATION=/mnt/immich_db/pgdata
# The location where your uploaded files are stored
UPLOAD_LOCATION=/mnt/immich_photos

# The location where your database files are stored. Network shares are not supported for the dat>
DB_DATA_LOCATION=/mnt/immich_db/pgdata
My docker-compose looks like:
immich-server:
container_name: immich_server
image: ghcr.io/immich-app/immich-server:${IMMICH_VERSION:-release}
# extends:
# file: hwaccel.transcoding.yml
# service: cpu # set to one of [nvenc, quicksync, rkmpp, vaapi, vaapi-wsl] for accelerated >
volumes:
# Do not edit the next line. If you want to change the media storage location on your syste>
- ${UPLOAD_LOCATION}:/data
- /etc/localtime:/etc/localtime:ro
immich-server:
container_name: immich_server
image: ghcr.io/immich-app/immich-server:${IMMICH_VERSION:-release}
# extends:
# file: hwaccel.transcoding.yml
# service: cpu # set to one of [nvenc, quicksync, rkmpp, vaapi, vaapi-wsl] for accelerated >
volumes:
# Do not edit the next line. If you want to change the media storage location on your syste>
- ${UPLOAD_LOCATION}:/data
- /etc/localtime:/etc/localtime:ro
When I do:
docker compose up -d
docker compose up -d
I get:
Error response from daemon: failed to create task for container: failed to create shim task: OCI runtime create failed: runc create failed: unable to start container process: error during container init: error preparing rootfs: remount-private dst=/var/lib/docker/vfs/dir/4d2dee32a450f2b8fe40312a4ce8007c6de8984cf74c5a074291bec86fc288fc, flags=0x40000: permission denied: unknown

I can cd to the /mnt/immich_photos and see the data, I can create folders in there so not a permissions issue I don't think? Thanks for the help.

runc create failed: unable to start container process: error during container init: error preparing rootfs: remount-private this is indeed a docker/permissions issue, not from immich We do not recommend using a LXC (while it can work, you are mostly on your own to setup/debug it)

Had it working before, but all gone pete tong when trying to add the mounted drives. You would expect this to work in a VM on Proxmox over an LCX ? Thanks @Zeus

VMs tend to have less permission issues, especially when you use a disk attached to the VM not a virtio passthrough LXC can work like I said but it's def a permission based issue here of some kind

rgr that, thanks. Future Reference anyone else trying to do this:
Set permissions on the mounts from within the container, make sure that the container has the features mount=nfs & nesting=1 turned on
