What happened?

After having run xyops on my home server for some time now, I was just trying to set it up on a remote server, basically, same compose file like so:

services:
  xyops01:
    image: ghcr.io/pixlcore/xyops:latest
    container_name: xyops01
    hostname: xyops.domain.com
    init: true
    restart: unless-stopped
    environment:
      XYOPS_xysat_local: "false"
      TZ: Europe/Berlin
    volumes:
      - ./xy-data:/opt/xyops/data
      - ./xyops-conf:/opt/xyops/conf
      - /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock
    ports:
      - "5542:5522"

created empty folders for xy-data and xyops-conf, then:

docker compose up                                                                                                                                   ─╯

xyops01 exited with code 1 (restarting)

Checking xyops-conf/config.json on my running server, I see that it has

{
        "base_app_url": "http://localhost:5522",
        "email_from": "admin@localhost",
        "secret_key": "initial",
...

(wherever "initial" is coming from ? an older beta version maybe?), applied that change to the new server's config.json, same error.

How very strange! Let me try to reproduce this.

The container-start.sh script is supposed to auto-generate a secret key and write it into the /opt/xyops/conf/overrides.json file on first launch:

OH MY GOSH, just found the typo. Fully reproduced. How on earth did I miss this in testing!??!!?

Pushing out emergency build ASAP.

Docker image is building.... ETA 9 minutes...

All fixed in xyOps 1.0.31. Whew! Thank you so much for reporting this.
