Lizmap Web Client: Persistent volume mounting permissions error

[Gamateka]

Hello,

I am encountering a persistent issue with the lizmap_web_client container. All containers show as "running" in Portainer, but the Lizmap service is not accessible via the web port and its logs show repeated permission errors.

The main error I'm seeing is:
cp: can't create 'lizmap/var/config/localconfig.ini.php.dist': No such file or directory
cp: can't create 'lizmap/var/config/profiles.ini.php.dist': No such file or directory
cp: can't create 'lizmap/var/config/lizmapConfig.ini.php.dist': No such file or directory

Here is my current docker-compose.yml file:

I have already tried the following troubleshooting steps:

1. I ensured the local 'lizmap-projects' folder is empty and has full permissions (777).
2. I added 'user: "root"' to the lizmap service to align user IDs.
3. I tried removing and recreating the local volume directory.

I am running this on Ubuntu 24.04 LTS.

Could you please provide some insight into what might be causing this issue and how to resolve it? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
