Configuring ownCloud to Use ~/home as Default Workspace Instead of Docker Volume Directory

Hello,

I’m trying to set up my ownCloud instance in a way that allows me to use my ~/home directory as the primary workspace.

Currently, after setting up the ownCloud client, it creates its own directory at "Source": "/home/my_user/.local/share/containers/storage/volumes/owncloud-docker-server_files/_data",.

However, my goal is to have ownCloud sync directly with my ~/home directory, as that’s where I have all my primary workspace files.

Initially, I attempted to use a symbolic (soft) link to point from the default ownCloud directory to my ~/home, but it doesn’t seem to recognize or work with the symlink.

System Configuration:

  • Linux f38-server 6.5.5-200.fc38.x86_64
  • ownCloud version: OC_VersionString = ‘10.13.1’

Has anyone else faced a similar issue, or does anyone have suggestions on how to configure ownCloud to sync directly with the ~/home directory?

Any help or guidance would be greatly appreciated!
