When I attach a volume to Kafka, it doesnt seem to working. apparently railway is attaching the volume as room where as kafka is running as a user and does not have access to the attached volume. what is the fix for this?

Hey! Railway mounts volumes as root but Kafka runs as a non-root user, so it can't access the volume. Quick fix: add a Start Command like chown -R 1000:1000 /your/volume/path && kafka-start-command to give Kafka ownership before it starts. If you're not sure of the user ID, try 1000 or 1001 (common for Kafka images), or just do chmod 777 /your/volume/path for testing. Which Kafka image are you using?
