Hey there, thanks a lot for pyfedi it's a really nice addition to the network !
I tried to run the docker install and hit some issues with the database:
db-1 | initdb: error: could not change permissions of directory "/var/lib/postgresql/data": Operation not permitted
db-1 | fixing permissions on existing directory /var/lib/postgresql/data ...
The problem is that for some reason after cloning the pg folder is owned by root, so it can't change permissions. I had to change owner to 1000 and then the rest of the install procedure went flawlessly !

Thanks for reporting your fix, I had the same issue!
I suspect that adding
to the environment section of compose.yaml would stop this from occurring but I haven't tried it.

What exactly did you do to solve this? I am seeing something similar.

In the host I had to change the owner to 1000. It was set to root somehow.
