Hi @AriPurnama

Which guide did you follow to run DHIS2 on Docker? I follow this guide: DHIS2 in Docker | DHIS2 Developer Portal

It doesn’t really contain any requirement to configuring the file access settings; however, the error you shared shows that there is an issue with file permissions.

I just update the image version on the docker-compose file

Which exact image are you using?

I just tried with this and it works as expected.
