How to deal with the user permisions on the folders? about wordpress-docker-compose HOT 8 OPEN

Even though I don't like messing with permissions of folders, I changed them manually. Inside the root folder I give sudo chown -R $USER:$USER .

Don't forget the last dot.

I also had a similar issue on PHP containers for Laravel. I solved this using an entrypoint script: https://github.com/nezhar/laravel-docker-compose/tree/master/docker/php

I may add this also here in future.

Also you may try to run the container as an arbitrary user as provided in the docs of the PHP Docker image, as this is the base of the Wordpress image: https://hub.docker.com/_/php/

All you need for this is to extend the environmets of the wordpress service:

    environment:
      WORDPRESS_DB_HOST: db
      WORDPRESS_DB_NAME: "${DB_NAME}"
      WORDPRESS_DB_USER: root
      WORDPRESS_DB_PASSWORD: "${DB_ROOT_PASSWORD}"
      APACHE_RUN_USER: 1000
      APACHE_RUN_GROUP: 1000

Hi, I've tried adding the "APACHE_RUN_USER: 1000" and "APACHE_RUN_GROUP: 1000" to fix the permission problem, but I get this:
"apache2: bad user name 1000"
Di you have any indication to solve this?
Thanks in advance

Hi,
I'm testing your amazing job, but I still can't fix that user permissions folders.
For instance with the WP Backoffice, I can't upload medias.

How did you by pass that issue ?

@d-castelli haven't tried it but have you tried adding the # before the id and group as specified in the doc nezhar referenced?
