Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/Drop-OSS/drop/issues/169

Hello,

I've installed Drop using docker compose on a Synology dsm 7.2 using docker compose. I had to change default postgress port to 5433:5432 so it doesn't interfere with synology photos one. All starts okay but cannot create and admin account. I get 500 error. Is it because I am not trying to create an account from the localhost or is it another issue? I've attached a screenshot with the error.

Thanks.

In the console for drop there should be a link to the setup wizard, that's the new place to create the admin account among other things.

don't forget to set environment.EXTERNAL_URL in the docker-compose.yml file too. drop serves some things on localhost instead of the LAN IP.

Is drop inconsistent about that sort of thing? I assumed it wasn't but if it is that is a bug.

like you can go to the IP from another PC but it won't reject you before environment.EXTERNAL_URL is set
so you get this weird inconsistent experience where you get invitation links addressed to localhost despite the fact that you're on a different PC

Unfortunately that isn't a solvable problem (from drop's end) then, at least for drop running in a container, as it only has access to the container's ip.

We can do a client side check with window.location or smth

I forgot stuff can be done client side, that is a good idea if EXTERNAL_URL isn't set

How does one get to the console?

I am entirety unfamiliar with how Synology does docker, but in the Synology dashboard I imagine there is probably a way to view container logs, should be able to grab it from there.
