I run gitea with this command:

docker run -d --restart=always --publish 3000:3000 \
--publish 22:22 --network gitea \
-v /opt/gitea:/data \
-v /etc/timezone:/etc/timezone:ro \
-v /etc/localtime:/etc/localtime:ro \
-e USER_UID=1218 -e USER_GID=1218 \
-e GITEA_WORK_DIR=/data/gitea -e GITEA_CUSTOM=/data/gitea/custom \
--name=gitea gitea/gitea:latest

The AppPath is /app/gitea/gitea and such is written to authorized_keys, however when executing docker exec -ti gitea su git bash -c "cd /data/gitea/log && gitea doctor" the AppPath is /usr/local/bin/gitea. This issue leads to doctor always complaining that authorized_keys is out of date.

This can be mitigated by using docker exec -ti gitea su git bash -c "cd /data/gitea/log && /app/gitea/gitea doctor", i.e explicitly providing /app/gitea/gitea as path

I suspect it would be easier to change the docker PATH to place /app/gitea/ on the PATH before /use/local/bin

Another option would be to change the docker exec to run /use/local/bin/gitea instead of /app/gitea/gitea but I think that would no doubt cause other issues with data paths etc.
