My workflow doesn't seem to see the files on the host

Questions

Initially i thought that my WriteBinaryFile node only doesn’t create the new file, but i believe the problem may be on a bit of a larger scope.

I respected to the letter the indications on the server setup docs page.

Welcome to the community @Eduard_Marin!

The reason is how you mount the folder. You tell Docker to mount the folder /home/jhon/n8n-local-files/ to files. Meaning the file /home/jhon/n8n-local-files/Declaratio-ANAF-300.bin on your host can be found under /files/Declaratio-ANAF-300.bin in the docker container / n8n.

Hope that makes sense.
