My YunoHost server

Hardware: VPS bought online
YunoHost version: 11.2.11.3 (stable)
I have access to my server : Through SSH | through the webadmin
Are you in a special context or did you perform some particular tweaking on your YunoHost instance ? : no
If your request is related to an app, specify its name and version: Paperless-ngx 2.7.1

Description of my issue

Does someone know where to find the variable “PAPERLESS_CONFIGURATION_PATH”?

Documentaiton says this: https://docs.paperless-ngx.com/configuration/#PAPERLESS_FILENAME_FORMAT

I couldn’t find the conf file or figure out, if yunohost uses Docker for this app.

Thanks for your support!

YunoHost apps do not rely on containers.

If you have questions about how the app is packaged, its repository is over there: GitHub - YunoHost-Apps/paperless-ngx_ynh: Scan, index and archive all your physical documents

Namely, the configuration file you seek is deployed in $install_dir/paperless.conf, which defaults to /var/www/paperless/paperless.conf. Do not forget to restart the Paperless NGX services after your modification.
