Trouble configuring MariaDB after crash

Hi,

I am trying to restore after a crash. First my Recorder did not start because it could not connect to my MariaDB. After reading a bit, I decided to uninstall MariaDB and then reinstall it. However, now I am stuck at the following:

After install, the config is like this:

Trying to start is gives an error because there is no password, and indeed I had that in my old config. So I try to update with my old config (that I copied before uninstalling), but then I get this:

And I can not save. It seems really strange. It looks like it validates what was before and not what I have entered.
I appreciate any help, as I am stuck now :frowning:

i think old docker volume for mariadb still there.
i think you have to remove it.
how? i don’t know i think you are under supervised install.
the command under linux should be :
docker container remove mariadb (remove mariadb container)
docker volumes prune (remove all volume unused …be carrefull).
or
docker volumes rm ‘volumename’ (remove the volume volumename)

or you could do it with portainer (addon, gui for docker)

Thank you @tomdudu38 , I will give it a try. Unfortunately I will not have time to try in before Wednesday evening.

I removed mariadb again, and that also (correctly) removed the docker container and volume.
However, I upgraded everything and made sure to configure Mariadb before first attempt to start it. And now it works!
