Mount File System within docker (for paperless-ngx)

I want to mount the path /data/nextcloud_data/Dokumente into my docker.

docker container ls
CONTAINER ID IMAGE COMMAND CREATED STATUS PORTS NAMES
78690b704594 ghcr.io/paperless-ngx/paperless-ngx:latest "/sbin/docker-entryp…" 6 months ago Up 4 days (healthy) 0.0.0.0:8000->8000/tcp, :::8000->8000/tcp paperless-ngx-webserver-1

f80fdd652715 ghcr.io/paperless-ngx/tika:latest "/bin/sh -c ‘exec ja…" 7 months ago Up 4 days 9998/tcp paperless-ngx-tika-1

So I try:

sudo docker run -t -i -v /data/nextcloud_data/Dokumente:/data/nextcloud_data/Dokumente ghcr.io/paperless-ngx/paperless-ngx /bin/bash

But it keeps failing

Paperless-ngx docker container starting…

Adjusting permissions of paperless files. This may take a while.

    I didn't realy solve it the way I wanted. But I reinstalled the docker container so now I can use my mount points.

    However, if anyone knows the answere, feel free to post it - for other people or for future use.

    Although i am not familiar with paperless-ngx this error looks like you incorrectly configured your applications running in your containers:

    Redis ping #0 failed. Error: Error 111 connecting to localhost:6379

    The ping happens inside the paperless container, as such localhost referes to the container, not your host. I suggest you to use docker networks. This will allow you to use the container names as the host names in the respective configurations of the applications.
