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
The files were on a mountpoint, completely separate drive. This has also been the case for all the previous times I ran an update, though I did recently move these files to a different drive mounted the same way. I got some sort of permission wrong maybe?
Will definitely set up a better backup system as soon as I can
Very odd, I think something else is going on not related to LXC/Proxmox. I’ve got LXC containers with external mounts and internal storage and haven’t seen any data loss over the years they’ve been running.
