Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/Mintplex-Labs/anything-llm/issues/1127

How are you running AnythingLLM?

Docker (local)

What happened?

After I restarted my docker container, I was unable to upload new documents to the instance, and my old files aren't showing the UI. I am sometimes given this error:

LanceDBError: LanceError(IO): Error parsing Path "/app/server/"/app/server/storage"/lancedb": Encountered illegal character sequence """ whilst parsing path segment """

Are there known steps to reproduce?

No response

You need to check your STORAGE_DIR env that is in the folder of wherever you can binding docker storage to. It seems to have two strings saved to it and it should just be STORAGE_DIR="/app/server/storage"
