I am not sure if I doing wrong with commands or I'm having an installation issue. As docker newbie, I think that maybe README should be more step by step tutorial focused.

So I have supposed that it is due to database have to be initializate , data have to be imported, as "Once data is loaded and users have been created run the webserver" says, so I try to do it following the other commands:

I suppose last one is due to "import" command didn't work.

I also try running comand one by one like: docker exec <PID> run initdb then docker exec <PID> run stardb and so on but final outcome it's the same

what is import.osm ? is this kind of special file, or where can I found more details about it ? I'm trying various files from geofabrik but it's not working

edit: I can user any .pbf file and call them import.pbf and this works, aparently
