Hi there
I'm experiencing an error when trying to use Docker Compose to build the Drop instance. I'm using the default configuration of the docker-compose.yml file provided on the Drop website, but every time I try to start up the container, I get the following error:
dependency failed to start: container drop-postgres-1 exited (1)I'm using Docker Desktop on Windows with WSL, so not sure if that could be causing the error. Otherwise, it's possible I'm not configuring the database URL correctly as I haven't made any changes?
Thank you!

It seems like the database isn't working at all. Could you use
docker compose logsto fetch the logs from the container? It should give us a better error message.@Meggness commented on GitHub (Aug 15, 2025):
It looks like it was specifically an issue related to WSL. I tweaked the external URL with my IP address, and then used Command Prompt instead of WSL to launch docker compose
