Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
When trying to run the OpenArchiver container in a K8s (OKD) Pod, I run into several "Permission Denied" errors that result in my inability to actually start that container correctly.

Describe the solution you'd like
It'd be great to either have instructions on how to get around these issues, example Pod deployment files, and/or correction to any of the components of the container that don't run correctly in rootless and/or restricted environments that tend to be the default in most Kubernetes platforms.

Describe alternatives you've considered
I can spin up a separate VM with Podman or Docker and bring the stack up that way with the provided docker compose file, but I'm trying to avoid the need to spin up VMs when I've got a K8s cluster.

Additional context
Running on OKD (Open Source OpenShift/OpenShift Kubernetes Distribution) v4.19.
