Selfhosted
A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.

Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.

Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
-
Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).

I don't mean to be a downer here, but the phrasing and tone of your post makes me think you're angry that it's not just as simple as pressing a button and having it all work. That is not their point of intent.
You're complaining about something not seeing your media folder, but seem to not understand why. That's your first problem. Dig into the logs and docs and figure out why maybe.
For those wanting everything to be like an app store...not gonna happen. The variables involved in just being connected to the Internet alone, LET ALONE being able to route traffic to your installs and serve traffic properly seems way above the level of effort you choose to dedicate to understanding it.
If you want simple "one-click" stuff, then just go for that. That's why PaaS exists. They make a platform easier to use, so you don't have to fuck with stuff.
If you're just here to complain that everything isn't super easy for you, there is a simple solution to that...
As I said in my comment...LOGS.
Learn more about what the actual error is and why it's not working.
Like its a configuration error, its not one click if I have to set up my own repo and app for it to work, so I use kavita instead, not a big deal they do the same thing for the most part lol
See I think you actually arent competent because this is something that wouldn't have logs lol
Why wouldn't it have logs?
just did the action of adding library and looking fir the folder and the log didnt even record anything, if I scan the log gets stuff popping up but i cant see the folder I want to scan in the first place so the log is useless?
Its not an error, the logs wouldnt be related to it, wouldn't something have to run? I can view the logs im 99% sure there wont be any relevant info, it shows paths just not the runtipi folder which is what is typically the only folder exposed to runtipi apps, instead I can see the rest of my servers directory and the root folder shows as empty
I dont even know what you're talking about tbh, Im just asking what one click app stores ppl like, there are a lot of devs out there trying to simplify/streamline the process? There are no issues with the logs because there are no errors, its literally just clicking add path in the library and the path doesn't have the folders and it doesn't scan while kavita the folder appears and scans lol
I'm not angry about anything, the other apps work, the path simply doesn't show up, if I click on root its empty while every other app has access to a runtipi folder in there, kavita worked fine, just komga for the same task didn't.
Your desktop user doesn't have access to root...
That might be why.
