Exporting Projects Script Erroring

Start with the documented docker-compose command and reproduce the failure in modules/server-ce-scripts/scripts/export-user-projects.mjs. Trace the DELETE request through services/web/app/src/Features/DocumentUpdater/DocumentUpdaterHandler.mjs and /overleaf/libraries/fetch-utils/index.js. Done means the script exports all projects without the request-failed error.

Hi all,

I want to be able to access my files from another location on my server, as such I found this script online:
bin/docker-compose exec sharelatex /bin/bash -ce "cd /overleaf/services/web && node modules/server-ce-scripts/scripts/export-user-projects.mjs --export-all --output-dir=/var/lib/overleaf/data/exports"

from here: https://docs.overleaf.com/on-premises/maintenance/data-and-backups/exporting-projects

when I run this I get:

I have just done a fresh install for unrelated reasons so the fix is not updating overleaf toolkit.
I have changed the overleaf port from default, and set listen ip to 0.0.0.0, other than that I have made no config changes.

Does anyone know why this script isn't working?

Or another way to export the files (.tex, .aux, etc.) from all projects from the host device.

Many thanks
