Hi,

I got some issues upgrading from the docker image version 0.4.0 to 0.4.1.

I think the problem comes from the startup process looking for the admin account which I deleted because I didn't wanted that username on my admin account. (That actually may not be related to the version)

And there also seems to be a problem with the database.

Here's the log:

Did you change the admin username in the config? It'll try to recreate the admin user every time if it doesn't exist, so you have to change the config to match an admin user.

Yes I did. I don't want to keep a user named admin in my setup.

Is there a workaround ?

EDIT: I totally misread your answer, I just changed the admin in the config file and it now works again. I'm closing this. Big thanks.
