Using Filebrowser template to access SQLite database

Issue

I am unable to get Filebrowser to work with the volume that contains my SQLite database.

What I've tried

I've...

  • Deployed a Filebrowser service to my project

  • Removed the default attached volume from the Filebrowser template

  • Detached my volume containing my SQLite db to the Filebrowser service

  • Mounted my volume to the Filebrowser service

  • Entered the same mount path to the Filebrowser when I was prompted to enter one

When I open the Filebrowser service URL, it says "It feels lonely here..." but there is data (a SQLite db with data) in that volume.

My goal

I would like to view and download my SQLite database to my local machine. Making updates to it in the Filebrowser UI would be nice as well.

What am I doing wrong?

UPDATE [SOLVED]

I had to add an additional USE_VOLUME_ROOT variable with a value of 1, which overwrites the default key of 0. Thank you for your help, medim!

Hi!

Just a guess here... But have you tried setting the USE_VOLUME_ROOT env var to 1 in the Filebrowser template as stated in the template's page description?

I did indeed miss that step! Weirdly, I could not update the default USE_VOLUME_ROOT value by editing it, it would just revert to 0. I had to add an additional USE_VOLUME_ROOT variable, which overwrote the default key. Thank you for your help, medim!
