Hi guys,
I have tried and failed and tried again, but to no avail... I am trying to set up an area on my NAS server as local storage for my uploaded Chevereto images. I have tried both "Local" option and "FTP", with the ordinary "Local" only giving me errors as I am not able to understand what I should put in the URL field - and honestly the documentation says nothing about this. The FTP solution where I FTP into my own server works and I see that the storage amount increases in Settings for External storage, and I see the files pop up on my server (although not exactly where I wanted them to end up). The problem with the FTP solution is that I am not able to view the pictures after upload (see attached).

Can anyone who has done this successfully show the settings for a working example of usage of "Local" storage as a local path on a local server? Especially the URL setting has me puzzled.

Oh, and by the way. I am running Chevereto natively on Ubuntu 22.04 on a local dedicated server on the same network as my TrueNAS where I am trying to store and show my files from.

Thank you in advance!

True, it says something about External storage URLs, but I still don't see anything fruitful about how this should be handled for Local Network Storage. If someone could give a practical example that would be great. 👍

Local Storage is for toying with External Storage, it works on top of that meaning that it is handled just like the real external apis.

If you use a public path like /images/mypath you end up with an URL like https://host/images/mypath/ and it will work because content at /images is under a web server which statically serves content present there.

You can use symlinks if you want to mount elsewhere.
