I tried to stop all containers and start it again but getting the same error..looks like some conflict exist
Data5 is newly mounted, rest are just there i have not created it, so it looks like big mess 😦
I stopped and removed containers, is there a way to reassign photos that are still on the drive?
that directory changing names is a problem

do you mean use the photos already on the drive without having to reupload?
Yes, precisely..is it possible or should i upload everything from scratch?
