Hi,
I've just set this up on Photon OS running on an ESX server, everything is running as shown below:
root@srv-docker [ ~/nefarious ]# docker container ls

However, the web interface for Transmission is not running and I'm getting the below error continuously:

Can anyone please help?
Offhand it looks like a permissions issue, but I can't identify why. I see you're running this container as root. Transmission gets run as a different user, so I'm wondering if your host permissions for transmission-settings.json aren't loose enough for the mounted volume?
Closed due to inactivity.
