2. Try to go to to the webui, http://localhost:8080, it's not responding
3. Docker log shows it restarting when the http request is received

Environment

- OS: Ubuntu 24.04.1
- How docker service was installed: Via apt install
- Docker version: Docker version 27.2.0, build 3ab4256

I would suggest using a correct folder path rather than the placeholder from our readme.

[rasmusbe]

Thanks, I did miss to change that in the issue, but its an issue what ever config path I use or if I don't use a volume for config at all (just keeps the config in the container)

I've also tried to set a password in 4.6.2 and then upgrade it, it still restarts on every http request in 4.6.3+ (but do not output logs about temporary password) so it has nothing to do with the temporary password generation.
