The recovery step reads /data/.mini_kek_passphrase through --volumes-from. weed writes that file as root with mode 0600, and the sentry-self-hosted-local image now runs as a non-root user, so the read fails with PermissionError when upgrading from before 26.8.0 with a wrapped filer KEK. Run the one-shot, read-only container with --user 0. Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 5.5 <[email protected]>

There was a problem hiding this comment.
Thank you for fixing this.
This does not need a unit test as well.

Fixes #4577
Cause
install/migrate-seaweedfs-kek.shrecovers a wrapped legacy filer KEK by runningscripts/recover_seaweedfs_kek.pyinsentry-self-hosted-localwith--volumes-fromthe temporary SeaweedFS container. The script reads/data/.mini_kek_passphrase, which weed creates as root with mode 0600. Since the sentry image runs as a non-root user, the read fails withPermissionErrorand the install aborts (before the marker is written or Postgres is touched, so a re-run is safe). It only shows up when upgrading from before 26.8.0 and the stored KEK is wrapped; a plain-hex KEK skips this path.Fix
Add
--user 0to that one-shot container, which only reads the volume and prints the key.Test
New
_unit-test/migrate-seaweedfs-kek-test.shstubs the container engine and asserts that the recoveryrunis started with--user 0. It fails on main and passes with the change.This PR was prepared with AI assistance (Claude Code) and the change reviewed against the issue's reproduction.
