Container fails to properly start when defining custom configuration on podman

[catgirlcataclysm]

Whenever I attempt to define a custom configuration file (as shown in the documentation) the container will refuse to start and instantly crash with this error:

- 131671049818080 [MAIN] locale set to 'C.UTF-8;C;C;C;C;C'

Caught std::exception: filesystem error: cannot create directories: Invalid argument []

I have tried starting with this command:

podman run --name lms --entrypoint '["/usr/bin/lms", "/var/lms/lms-custom.conf"]' -p 5082:5082 -v /home/kaitlyn/music/tracks:/music:ro -v /home/kaitlyn/music/lms:/var/lms:rw epoupon/lms

and this command:

podman run --name lms -p 5082:5082 -v /home/kaitlyn/music/tracks:/music:ro -v /home/kaitlyn/music/lms:/var/lms:rw epoupon/lms /var/lms/lms-custom.conf

I have yet to be able to get it to start though, and the moment I start it without defining a custom configuration it starts just fine.
I have also tried with all of the lms volumes as rw for all users (chmod 777), to no avail.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Hello!
What did you put in the custom conf file? Would you mind to share it?

well.... this is incredibly embarrassing and honestly quite stupid.
i downloaded the config from the repo and edited it, but somewhere along the line, the config file got wiped and became an empty file....

i redownloaded it and edited it again, and now it works flawlessly.
Apologies again, lol.

No problem!
But LMS should fall back on proper default values, and it looks like it is not the case
