Hi all,

I'm just starting out in the self hosting journey and at present have successfully got Pi-Hole and Plex set up on an old Dell Optiplex using proxmox.

I currently have portainer running on an LXC container and attempting to get JDownloader working, at present it works but I get an "Invalid download directory" which from googling comes from permission issues. In the portainer stack editor when setting up Jdownloader I had the following:

```

volumes:

- "/docker/appdata/jdownloader-2:/config:rw"

- "/mnt/plex/download:/output:rw"

```

In proxmox the owner of `mnt/plex/download` is root (UID 0 and GID 0) which have been modified in portainer as per the advice when googling the above issue, however I continue to get the "Invalid download directory" issue and have no clue where to go from here.

Any help appreciated!

I feel that winscp is lying to you. How'd you mount that path in the docker lxc? Proxmox GUI?

By the way I'm just encouraging you to keep on going. Permissions from the host to an lxc to a docker is a huge pain in the butt but really is the right way to do it and folks should not run privileged containers.
