Please try these steps.

  1. Verify Details: Ensure correct storage account name, key, and file share name.
  2. Install CIFS Support (Linux): 
    sudo apt-get install cifs-utils
  3. Set Directory Permissions:
    sudo mkdir -p /mnt/cloudstor/ipfs-docker_ipfs-azure
    sudo chmod 777 /mnt/cloudstor/ipfs-docker_ipfs-azure
  4. Check Docker Compose Config: Ensure correct volume setup in docker-compose.yml:
    driver_opts:
    share_name: ipfs-share
    storage_account_name: <name>
    storage_account_key: <key>
  5. Use SMB Version 3.0:
    -o vers=3.0,username=<name>,password=<key>,dir_mode=0777,file_mode=0777
