Selfhosted
A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.
Rules:
-
Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.
-
No spam posting.
-
Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.
-
Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
-
Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).
-
No trolling.

I'll be honest man, just don't do it. I tried, I really did, to make this exact scenario to work. You can get it to work - but it will be extremely brittle. You're essentially hacking around LXC to do things it wasn't built to do, and most of it is disabling security that's there for a reason. At the end of the day you are essentially running docker directly on the host anyway, the passthrough lxc becomes less and less "there" vs passing stuff through. Then, every update to proxmox became anxiety riddled because every update would change or break something on my setup.
If you want to continue, more power to you, but I hope you heed my warnings. This is a path you will spend a lot of time on and experience a lot of frustration. Spin up a tiny debian VM and run the containers there, the overhead of the VM has been negligible, and any speedup I might have had has been made up 10x by cutting the amount of time I've had to hack proxmox to make it work.
I might have to heed to your warnings. The nfs share is actually a mirror RAID hosted on an OMV VM on the same host. It would be just easier to spin up bookstack image on that VM itself. Thanks
Sage advice.
I went through the same thing and eventually reached the conclusion that a VM really is the best method. I did get a working LXC Docker setup going, but I could just not get it to be as stable as a VM long-term.
