my backups started failing after this:
[2025-09-09 09:34:50] Creating archive: blah-forum-2025-09-09-093246-v20250828181952.tar.gz
[2025-09-09 09:34:50] Making sure archive does not already exist...
[2025-09-09 09:34:50] Creating empty archive...

looking at permissions from within the web_only
container:
/var/www/discourse/public/backups# ls -l
total 4
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 Sep 6 12:37 default
if I look at another instance (standard install), the ownership is different:
/var/www/discourse/public/backups# ls -l
total 4
drwxr-xr-x 2 discourse www-data 4096 Sep 9 03:46 default
what’s gone wrong here and what should I change on that directory for the web_only container - should it be the same as for standard install?
