Hello selfhosted community, something weird just happened to my setup while running a routine update.

I’m running docker containers on a couple Debian LXCs through Proxmox, and a regular apt-get upgrade just wiped all my configurations. Somehow it seems to have gutted my databases and deleted the compose.yml files without a trace remaining. Thankfully all my data seems to be intact as far as I can tell.

Did I royally mess something up in all of my configurations or in doing the update? This has never happened to me before. Thankfully I have a backup for the configs that’s about 6 days old, but it’s still extremely annoying. Any hints? Thanks

    You didn’t happen to change an unprivileged container to privileged, or vice versa, after creating it, right? Doing so can break filesystem permissions, which could have resulted in something like this.

      Interesting, I think I did actually do that. I guess my best bet for now is to just nuke the LXCs then and move everything to a new VM. Thanks for the advice!
