touch: setting times of 'XXX' : No such file or directory

[Shadow8472]

For the greater context, I'm trying to run Nextcloud:

• Podman 3.0.1(rootless)
• Debian 11 (Linux kernel 5.10.0-26-amd64 x86_64)
• storage volume hosted over NFS (mounted with systemd)
  Rootless NFS Volume Permissions: What am I doing wrong with my Nextcloud/MaraiDB/Redis pod? podman#20519

It was suggested I look into fuse-overlayfs, and while I've been making inches of progress unguided, I'm focused enough of a question that my 1/3 to 1/2 of my search results are in Chinese.

touch: setting times of 'helloWorld': No such file or directory

So far, I've tried rebooting (both NFS client and server) as well as making sure both systems' clocks are adjusted from Daylight Savings Time ending.
