It can’t access config
Either problem is mount point is wrong(point to wrong location or bad location) or it not have permission to access folder or files at the location
/srv/usr/config/config.yml:/config/config.yml works
Quick question about hardware requirements. I notice on the recommended hardware list one of the recommendations is a Minisforum GK41. The specs are celeron J4125 processor, 8GB of ram, USB 3.0, and GB Ethernet. Would a box with these specs with the coral usb accelerator likely be enough for 6, 4MP Hikvision cameras + 1 amcrest doorbell cam?
Yes, I’m trying to remember exactly what I did different. I know it was a problem with me putting the wrong location/not really understanding the structure of the linux filesystem properly. If I recall it had actually created a blank folder somewhere I hadn’t expected and was trying to use it as the config file. I know my docker-compose.yaml now has the source: ~/frigate/config.yml
Can’t remember for sure if it was just the ~ that made the difference, but it’s worth a try.
I appreciate your reply and i have tried your suggestion ~/ however this didn’t work for me. I went back to your original post and saw comment this.
`
volumes:
- type: bind
source: /frigate/config/config.yml
target: /config/config.yml`
Did you use this as it is not working for me ? would you be able to share your details of your config.yml file so that i can see the format you achieve to solve this as nobody is respond despite the error 21 is common. I know that my path to the config.yml is the absolute path.
Thanks in advance.
On your host, run the following commands and provide the output here.
ls -lah /frigate/config
cat /frigate/config/config.yml
This the log from my iMac where i am trying to connect to the config.yml file as I am running this container o a mini pc OS Debian in Proxmox. i have created your commands on both PC. Please note i checked the path of my original attempts which are the same as the new directory today shown in log.

Hope you can help as I am newbie. Thanks
~ is the user home… It means /root/ in such case.
so try /root/frigate/config/config.yml
Thanks for reply & comments.
Just tried ‘root’ and tried ~ this tilda is not accepted in the stack. The path i am trying to connect is my iMac and i still the same result just now. The container is on a mini PC with Proxmox bare metal other containers work fine it is just will not load up from the confi?

Check config content now…
cat /root/frigate/config/config.yml
However, you’ll need to copy config on the same place than the container. Otherwise file won’t be available
Hi, I have created the following config.yml thru VS Code ( /frigate/config.yml) on the host, which i believe is the mini Proxmox PC & the iMac. However when i cat /frigate/config.yml it states no such file or directory.
Apologise for asking but where am i going wrong and how do i create & insert into the container?
I have always understood to create the directory and create the file by nano ?
`root@pve:~# ls
frigate
root@pve:~# cd frigate
root@pve:~/frigate# ls
root@pve:~/frigate# nano config.yml
root@pve:~/frigate# cat /frigate/config.yml
cat: /frigate/config.yml: No such file or directory
root@pve:~/frigate# ls
config.yml
root@pve:~/frigate# nano config.yml
root@pve:~/frigate#
This is the same error than above :
~/frigate/ your actual path is NOT the same than /frigate/
So either use the absolute path :
cat /root/frigate/config.yml or still cat ~/frigate/config.yml or the relative one cat ./config.yml
Whenever you need, check your current path with pwd
Thank you,
Now that the cat command shows that i have correct path ( see below) I changed the docker-compose file accordingly and it has running for an hour, however i have this log error in Portainer.
Any ideas ?

So check every yaml sections, especially those related to version 0.84 or .90 … You can still add this to read debug info
logger:
default: debug
You are missing the “true” after “enabled:” in your clips section.

I have checked my frigate config file (clips issue was a copy error) and i cannot find any misalignments errors , however i am still getting the following errors which i am unable to solve, at least the containers is running and not exiting.
