By default, UMS will run as a non-root user. Due to this, your media directory that you bind mount into the container must have other permissions set to rx:
chown -R o+rx /path/to/my/media
Default UMS.conf with a media folder specified:
docker run -d \
--net=host \
--restart=always \
--name ums \
-e FOLDER="/media" \
-e FORCE_CHOWN="false" \
-e NETWORK_INTERFACE="" \
-e LOG_LEVEL="" \
-e PORT=5001 \
-e SET_MEDIA_PERMISSIONS="false" \
-v ums-data:/opt/ums/data \
-v ums-database:/opt/ums/database \
-v /path/to/your/media:/media \
mbentley/ums
Custom UMS.conf and persistent UMS.cred file, data and database directories:
docker run -d \
--net=host \
--restart=always \
--name ums \
-e FOLDER="" \
-e FORCE_CHOWN="false" \
-e NETWORK_INTERFACE="" \
-e LOG_LEVEL="" \
-e PORT=5001 \
-e SET_MEDIA_PERMISSIONS="false" \
-v /path/to/your/UMS.conf:/opt/ums/UMS.conf \
-v /path/to/your/UMS.cred:/opt/ums/UMS.cred \
-v /path/to/data:/opt/ums/data \
-v /path/to/database:/opt/ums/database \
-v /path/to/your/media:/media \
mbentley/ums
FOLDER- (default: null) Automatically set the path to the media folder for UMS inUMS.confFORCE_CHOWN- (default:false) When set totrue, forces ownership of the/opt/ums/dataand/opt/ums/databasedirectories so UMS can write to themNETWORK_INTERFACE- (default: null) UMS will autodetect the network interface; sometimes you want to specify which network interface to have UMS bind toLOG_LEVEL- (default: null) UMS defaults toINFO, can beALL,TRACE,DEBUG,INFO,WARN,ERRORorOFFPORT- (default: null) Defaults to the UMS default which is currently 5001 if not set; changed the default port if setSET_MEDIA_PERMISSIONS- (default:false) When set totrue&FOLDERpassed, performs achmodon theFOLDERdirectory so that it is world read/execute to be able to read the media files and traverse directories
Note: Volumes for UMS.conf, data database are optional but the data in them will not persist otherwise. If you need a UMS.conf file to start from, you can start a container and use docker cp to transfer the file to your host:
docker run -d --name ums-temp mbentley/ums bash
docker cp ums-temp:/opt/ums/UMS.conf UMS.conf
docker stop ums-temp
docker rm ums-temp
Note: You will likely need to chown all persistent files and directories to 500:500. The entrypoint script will attempt to do it for you if they're not set correctly.
If you would rather not use --net=host, you can expose the ports for UMS but autodiscovery might not work:
- TCP - 2869, 5001, 9001
- UDP - 1900
