default login not working with new deployment, muiltiple retries

[straes]

Hello.

After multiple attempts following the quick start process here:

git clone -b release https://github.com/netbox-community/netbox-docker.git
cd netbox-docker
tee docker-compose.override.yml <<EOF
version: '3.4'
services:
netbox:
ports:
- 8000:8080
EOF
docker-compose pull
docker-compose up

Everything appears to come up ok, application accessible. However, the default admin credential does not work. This is the same result after multiple attempts, and am not altering any content in the env/netbox.yml, including these two:

SUPERUSER_NAME=admin
SUPERUSER_PASSWORD=admin

Any ideas?

`

docker-compose up

While I haven't ran into this issue after deleting and reinstalling a few times, one thing I do is always wipe my machine and start over. Usually because there's always a persistent container, volume, or network that just hangs around.

Warning: this will delete all docker items you may have ever installed.

I run them so often, I made an bash alias.

# stop everything from running first
alias docker-clean-everything='\
  docker rm -v $(docker ps -a -q -f status=exited);\
  docker rmi -f $(docker images -q);\
  docker volume rm -f $(docker volume ls | awk "{print $2}");\
  docker network rm $(docker network ls | awk "{print $2}")'

Once this runs, you'll have a clean and empty machine to start over.

I also recommend deleting the git repo from your machine, and pulling it down again as they may be writing temp files.

Usually docker-compose down -v does the job pretty well. It stops and removes all the related containers and removes all volumes as well.

While I never could get a clear root, it only ever appeared to occur on this one instance. All other instances tested were fine. Thank you for the input.
