I'm trying to create a postgres container, I have the following in my Docker Compose:
db:
container_name: db
image: postgres
restart: always
environment:
#POSTGRES_USER="postgres"
POSTGRES_PASSWORD: HDFnWzVZ5bGI
ports:
- 5432:5432
volumes:
- pgdata:/var/lib/postgresql/data
adminer:
container_name: adminer
image: adminer
restart: always
ports:
- 8338:8080
And yet Docker keeps saying that the database is initialized and that the superuser is not specified. Where am I going wrong?
I've tried with and without equals, a hyphen, quotation marks. No matter what I try, it won't see it.
#Solution:
Find:
volumes:
- pgdata:/var/lib/postgresql/data
Replace:
volumes:
- /opt/postgres/data:/var/lib/postgresql/data

Thanks, I tried with and without the
POSTGRES_USER
line commented out, still not joy. The documentation says it should default to default when not declared.
