Trying to run Komga in Podman and getting `lsetxattr` error

I’ve been playing with setting up various docker images to run in rootless podman. I’m currently working on a web based comic bok reader called Komga.

You can find docker images here:

I’m using a kubernetes yaml file to make the container.

When I run podman play kube xxx.yaml I get the following error:

starting container c386510c7cde6887e554c0d3f6279ea1f1bc4e3c8ff8f9bfa009d6055345684e: lsetxattr /mnt/comics/(New) Battlestar Galactica Six (2014): operation not supported]

Here are the relevant snippets of the yaml:

And the volume section:

 145   │       hostPath:
 146   │         path: /mnt/comics

 153   │     - name: komga-config
 154   │       hostPath:
 155   │         path: /home/andy/.podman/komga/config
 156   │     - name: timezone
 157   │       hostPath:
 158   │         path: /home/andy/.podman/komga/timezone

/mnt/comics is a CIFS mount from my NAS.

I have run the following command to make sure podman containers have SELinux rights to write to SMB mounts:

sudo setsebool -P virt_use_samba 1

Well, I figured it out. When passing a CIFS or NFS share into a container, you should not use the :z option in the mountPath: under volumeMounts:
