what's your data folder env set to?
Jack
JackOP17mo ago
N8N_USER_FOLDER was set to the volume variable and the volume was set to /root/volume that is ive tried the same with the volume set to /home/node, /home/node/.n8n. /root/.n8n

set your variables without using template variables, there's an issue with rendering variables from templates
Jack

same for the db or can that remain tbh keeping a static env encryption key works, not sure the pros of having a volume with n8n ill look
Brody

no those are fine, they are automatically added

wait youre talking about like i was setting it internally in the dockerfile for the volume not in the template deploy page options would like more volume documentation, hard to understand better how it works or to learn when i start it w/o declaring that env var too this is among some of the few deploy logs UserSettings were generated and saved to: /home/node/.n8n/config

I don’t have any problem with template variables, those work fine in my case.

oh that's good then, but unfortunately I don't quite know what to tell you here, this is more so something I'd need be to be hands on to debug
