Files upload didn't work

Hi.

Got everything installed and working, but file uploads.

Dockers says all images are running (so mini too), but for some reason it tells that where is an error uploading file.

I was able to get it partially working. I had to add a minio client (minio/mc) container that created the bucket as outline won't automatically create it and also set the download permission for the bucket. After adding that in I was able to upload a profile picture, but when uploading an image on a page it is trying to upload the image to S3 and not the specified minio endpoint/bucket specified in the environment variables.

Update, I also had to set the env variable AWS_S3_ACL to public-read and everything is working now! Also, below is my service I added to initialize the bucket.

  startup:
    image: minio/mc
    depends_on:
      - minio
    entrypoint: /bin/sh -c "
      /usr/bin/mc config host add minio http://minio:9000 ACCESS_KEY SECRET_KEY;
      /usr/bin/mc mb minio/outline-bucket;
      /usr/bin/mc policy set download minio/outline-bucket;
      exit 0;"

@sdprovost's solution works for me! Thank you!

just remember change ACCESS_KEY and SECRET_KEY to your own key,its on "env.minio"

hey guys, I wrote a detailed guide after I was able to configure Outline with MinIO and Keycloak.

Hopefully, it will help others.
