i've tried three times to install the Nightly branch (without customization) All I did was go to the /opt directory and ran "sudo git clone https://github.com/mailcow/mailcow-dockerized" then "sudo bash ./generate_config.sh" then "sudo docker compose up -d" and then tried connecting to the FQDN the logs show "php-fpm-mailcow-1 | Waiting for SQL..."

Nightly Branch doesn't work out of the box

then “sudo bash ./generate_config.sh”
then “sudo docker compose up -d”

and then tried connecting to the FQDN

Open an issue on Github. Problems of nightly releases should be handled over there.

Never mind. Even though I performed “docker compose down” and completely removed the “/opt/mailcow-dockerized” directory. Then followed the instructions to install Mailcow using git clone and running the generate config script, something was left behind when I deleted the mailcow-dockerized directory. I assume perhaps an issue with the stable release docker images were not overwritten, I don’t know.

But, when I deleted all images, and performed “docker system prune –all”. I was able to install the nightly branch. It is now running, and I will perform my intended customization of using my own certs and LDAP.

Bottom line, I created the problem by not clearing all of the docker images before installing the nightly branch.
