Can someone help with docker import problem?
When I run beet import /downloads i get this error musiclibrary.blb cannot not be opened: unable to open database file. What could be causing the problem?
I am using Linux server docker image and can see the files in the config folder from within the container. using the same uid and gid. I have deleted the musiclibrary.blb file and restarted the docker image with no joy.
Any ideas?
