I am having the exact same issue. the myspeed folder has read\write for the user everyone. I have even tried giving everyone full control over the folder and still experience the permission issue with the docker container.

@catanbri your comment got me to read marius tutorial properly. I hadn't sawn that he adjusts the folder permissions. I found his tutorial after I had problems with the install.

Got it working after a few tries.

1. Remove everything. Also delete the docker folder. Changing the permissions afterwards didn't work for me.
2. Follow his guide. https://mariushosting.com/how-to-install-myspeed-on-your-synology-nas/

Working and running over 24 h now.
