The container does **NOT** run under the root account. It runs under a user named *www-docker* with a UID of 8080. **This means any files you mount into the container need to be readable (and/or writable depending on your use-case) by UID 8080**. This does not mean just content files, it also includes configurations, server-blocks and *certificates*! Before mounting your files, ensure this is the case. There are more detailed instructions in the [wiki](https://git.asifbacchus.app/ab-docker/ab-nginx/wiki) if you need help setting file permissions.

This is a significant change versus most other NGINX implementations/containers where the main process is run as root and the *worker processes* run as a limited user. In those cases, permissions don’t matter since NGINX can always use the root account to read any files (and especially certificates!) it needs. Please understand this difference.

If you need to change the UID, then you’ll need to rebuild the container using the [Dockerfile in the git repo](#https://git.asifbacchus.app/ab-docker/ab-nginx). The process would be something like this: If you need to change the UID, then you’ll need to rebuild the container using

If I've forgotten anything, you find any bugs or you have suggestions, please file an issue either on my private [git server ](https://git.asifbachus.app/ab-docker/ab-nginx) or on [github](https://github.com/asifbacchus/ab-nginx). Also, I am *not* affiliated with NGINX in any way, so please **do not** bother them with any issues you find with this container. Bother me instead, I actually enjoy it!
