Hi,

I’m running docker containers a long time, and normaly everything runs well.
Since yesterday all postgres DB container don’t start and run in restart loop, so it is not possible to jump into the container
What I see in the logfiles is:

PostgreSQL Database directory appears to contain a database; Skipping initialization

I’ve tryed to set the user: 1000:1000 explicite in the compose file without success
Searching the web does not help too.

Running on Tuxedo OS (Ubuntu)

Any hint or solution to fix this problem?
Thanks in advance
Kind Regards

After searching and testing differend solutions without success I endet with this post:

so I have removed docker completely, reeboot, and re-install docker and now all containers seems to work again
