"Hunt matching query does not exist" on new docker setup

[nro-bot]

Hello, I'm evaluating if this is suitable for running some testsolving. I have followed instructions https://puzzlehunt-server.readthedocs.io/en/latest/setup.html

However on 1. running docker-compose up and 2. going to localhost or localhost/staff, after enabling debug, I receive error

Hunt matching query does not exist.

See following screenshot of full error message:

My .env file contains

DB_NAME=puzzlehunt_db
DB_PASSWORD=[...]
DB_USER=puzzleuser
DJANGO_SECRET_KEY=[...]
DOMAIN=localhost
CONTACT_EMAIL=sample_email@example.com

In text form:

On enable debug using .env I receive traceback:

I can include full debug if helpful.

Thanks for your interest!

Sorry about the troubles, there is a part of the setup documentation that has been missing for a bit and "hasn't been an issue because *I* know what to do..." 🤦

Anyway, run the following commands and all should be good:

docker-compose exec app python3 /code/manage.py collectstatic --noinput
docker-compose exec app python3 /code/manage.py loaddata initial_hunt

I have also added the commands as a "step 6" to the readme.md, I'll get it into the readthedocs soon hopefully.

Oh whoa, thanks for the fast response! Banged on my head on it for a bit, went to dinner, came back to solution. Works great, thanks!
