Docker User and Group [Solved]

davidsilva · September 6, 2018 at 1:59 PM

I installed docker and sickrage and it asks for a group id and user id. -e PGID=<gid> -e PUID=<uid> With Libreelec running everything as root, what would the group id and user id be please? I used 1001 and its not that as it cant move files. I googled it and it says the kernel would see user id 0 as root but not the group id. I haven't tried them yet incase its wrong. Also is there an easy method to reconfigure a container? Or is it just a matter of stop the container and changing the parameters again?

Show UID and GID

Code

id -u root
id -g root

Both should return 0

You can pass the details with the -e parameter

However, have you looked at Thoradia addons, which includes Medusa a fork of SickRage - which would allow you to do what you want without running docker.

They were both 0.
