Connecting to a server with empty root

[poespas]

Hi there,

When briefly using the docker image, it seems like it tries to connect and load the root / folder, which appears to be empty and not the mounted volume.

Changing the path to the mounted path will result in a Failed to retrieve directory listing error from my FTP Client.

Is this expected behaviour?

I'm wondering if you're having the same issue I briefly was. In the example, he lists the volume mount like this...

'/data:/home/user'

In this case, /data is the local volume you're trying to mount to and /home/user needs to use the same username you set as FTP_USER in the environment variables. He's mapping the created user's home directory to the volume mount.
