Permission error while running GET on docker - docker

Question

I'm running an MVP on my computer, but every time I try to use an "export" functionality, I get a permission error.
It seems to be a problem with my system since no one else is facing this problem.
This is the error I see on docker logs:
172.18.0.1 - - [21/Jul/2022 16:28:20] "GET /service/export/all HTTP/1.1" 500 -

Does anyone know how to solve this?
Thanks
