Installed a new debian server, installed docker, but then now i have a problem with permissions on passed directories.

On the previous server, the uid/gids inside the docker container match the uid/gid on the real server.

Root is 0, www-data is 33, and so on.

On this new server, instead, files owned by root (0) in the container are translated to 1000 on the server, www-data (33) is 100032, and so on (+1000 appended to the uid)

Is this normal or did I misconfigure something? On the previous server I was running everything as root (the interactive user was root), and i would like to avoid that

      You don’t need to create the user first. Here’s the simplest I can come up with:

      FROM alpine:latest
COPY myscript.sh /app/myscript.sh
USER 10000:10001
CMD ["sh", "/app/myscript.sh"]

      This simply runs /app/myscript.sh with UID 10000 and GID 10001.

        Wasnt aware that you can just think of IDs from fresh air.
        Thought it was to create the user and ID manually amd then be able to use it.
