[MASTER] error: path must be absolute or specify root to res.sendFile

What happened:

Image files uploaded to local storage cannot be accessed, when accessed they return 500 Error and output 'error: path must be absolute or specify root to res.sendFile' on the console
Previously the images were accessible, using docker to run wikijs, but for unknown reasons this issue suddenly occurred

I had the same problem of images not appearing, and solved it by changing the "Path" of the "Local File System" in the "Storage" section of the admin area from relative to absolute (as required in the comment below the field)
