FATAL: database "bimsurfer2" does not exist

[Moult]

Upon attempting an installation, no errors during running init.sh and docker-compose up -d. When I view the homepage (i.e. the domain I specified), I see a file browse and a submit query button.

If I attempt to upload an IFC, I get a 500 internal server error. Checking docker logs reveal:

FATAL:  database "bimsurfer2" does not exist

... and in Python ...

psycopg2.OperationalError: FATAL:  database "bimsurfer2" does not exist

Is there potentially missing instructions on setting up the database in the docker setup?

[aothms]

I remember seeing this. My interpretation is that it simply takes a while for the database server to initialize and I didn't accomodate for this. Can you try docker-compose down and another up -d?

@aothms you are correct :) Up and running now! http://view.blenderbim.org:8089/
