The main sweep — ~260 call sites across ~100 files move from string
concatenation on a single root to appDir/storageAppDirs/storageAppConfigs.
On a single-root install the resolved paths are identical, so this is a
no-op until a location is registered.
Enumerators were the interesting half. `for d in "$containers_dir"/*/`
appears in the menus, the registry/artifact scanners and the DNS setup —
and a shell glob cannot list a rootless 751 tree at all, which is the
same bug config_find_file.sh already documents in a comment. Routing them
through storageAppDirs (which enumerates as the owning user) fixes that
alongside the multi-root work.
Three places needed judgement rather than substitution:
db_app_scan.sh deletes database rows and port allocations for apps whose
folder is missing, and reaps "empty" app dirs. With a storage location
unmounted, every app on it looks exactly like that. Each of those
branches now gates on appStorageAvailable first — an app on an unplugged
drive is skipped with a notice, never deleted.
instance_create.sh rewrites cloned hooks so an instance touches its own
directory instead of the base app's. Its sed matched ${containers_dir}<type>,
which this sweep just replaced with $(appDir <type>) — so it would have
silently stopped redirecting, and an instance would have written to the
original's files (the adguard auth adapter case its own comment warns
about). Now matches both appDir forms, verified against bare, quoted,
unrelated-app, legacy and prose cases.
peer_shell/peer_pull streamed and extracted relative to the primary root.
Both now use the app's own root, and peer_shell keeps a single-root
fallback since it runs as a restricted SSH shell with no LibrePortal env.
Also fixes a pre-existing bug found on the way: webui_app_config.sh
tested "$containers_dir/frontend/data/last_update", one level short of the
real tree under the libreportal app dir, so the WebUI refresh trigger
after a config update has never once fired.

Five apps (mastodon, owncloud, mattermost, matrix, stoat) took their generated
secrets from the compose-side generator tags PASSWORD_TAG_<n>/RANDOM_TAG_<n>/
HEX_TAG_<n>/VAPID_TAG_<n>. Those mint a fresh secret on every templating run, so
a reinstall handed the app a new database password while its data volume kept the
one initdb was given, and the app came back up unable to open its own database.
Move them to <app>.config as RANDOMIZED* placeholders, reaching the compose via
the #LIBREPORTAL|<APP>_<KEY>_TAG| mechanism tags_processor_app_config_values
already provides. No new handler: the tag name is derived from the config key, so
this is a config line plus a tag per secret. Generation is unchanged — still
random on first install; the value is now remembered instead of re-rolled.
Also fixes two things this exposed:
- The RANDOMIZED* replacers matched unanchored. `sort -u` orders slots lexically
(1, 10, 11, 2), so slot 1's pattern rewrote the prefix inside slot 10's
placeholder and slots 10+ ended up holding slot 1's secret with a digit glued
on — derivable, and invisible because the values weren't byte-identical.
Anchoring with \b makes match order irrelevant. Verified at 20 slots across
all four placeholder types: 64 keys, 64 distinct values, no prefix collisions.
- generateRandomPassword drew from base64 without constraining the mix; measured
over 2000 draws, 1 in 40 contained no digit at all. Retry until the result has
both a digit and a letter, bounded so a pathological length can't spin.
owncloud gains a fix in passing: its compose seeded the admin account from
PASSWORD_TAG_2 while the WebUI displayed CFG_OWNCLOUD_ADMIN_PASSWORD, which was
generated separately and never used. Both now read the same value.

'local result=$(cmd)' resets $? to 0 (the local builtin's own exit), so the
following checkSuccess always saw success regardless of cmd's real exit — the
mechanism that masked the de-sudo write failures. Split declaration from
assignment ('local result; result=$(cmd)') across all 235 active-code sites
(84 files) so the command's exit reaches checkSuccess. No behaviour change
beyond $? now being accurate (no set -e in runtime code; multi-line
assignments transform safely).

Two more cases of the manager writing directly into the container-owned
/libreportal-containers tree (same class as the regen-poll stamp), both masked
by a '✓ Success' that printed anyway:
- Password replacers (config/password/*): used 'runInstallOp sed -i' (manager)
on app configs copied into the container tree, so sed -i EACCES'd its temp
file and the substitution silently failed — the adguard.config 'couldn't open
temporary file', leaving the literal RANDOMIZEDPASSWORD placeholder. Added
runCfgOp (picks runFileOp vs runInstallOp by the target file's location) and
routed every $file grep/sed/awk through it: password, username, hex, vapid,
appkey, and bcrypt.
- Updater generator (webui_updater_scan): 'runFileOp cp <manager-tmp>' can't
read the manager's 0600 mktemp as the container user, so it fell through to a
manager 'cp' that EACCES'd on the container-owned out_dir. Switched the three
writes to 'runFileWrite < tmp' (manager shell reads the tmp; container user
tees the write).
Both deploy via the normal quick path (relocatable scripts) — no footprint bump,
no reinstall.

scanConfigsForRandomPassword iterates $configs_dir (manager-owned), so the
placeholder grep/sed/awk on the config file -> runInstallOp. The bcrypt export
log ($containers_dir/bcrypt.txt) is docker-install-owned, so its touch/chmod/
sed/grep/append -> runFileOp/runFileWrite (NOT runInstallOp). Covers all
password_replace*/password_user_replace/password_update_all and bcrypt/*.
