      Hi all,
      I did do a bit of a search but didn’t see anything.
      I’ve installed MM into a docker with portainer.
      I’ve done to enable my first module but the config.js file is read only.
      Any thoughts? I did stop MM running in portainer.

            Sam,
            How would I check if it is read only? Or owned by another user?
