When I run docker compose up it's initializes all the containers and then the zdb container fails to load and I get the error messages above. I can't seem to paste my docker compose file or environment files since it formats the code very weirdly and makes it hard to read.

Yeah I'll grab some logs and post my files tonight when I get time :)

I definitely can't connect to the container as it doesn't start. I've also tried without the .env file and that doesn't work either. I've even setup a new LXC and started from scratch with the same result. For reference I'm using Ubuntu server so maybe I'll try a different distro..

Ah thanks for that info I'll definitely take a look

Can I ask how you have this setup? Do you also have a reverse proxy setup or just WG on your router and everything gets routed via your router?

I used wireguard self hosted for a bit but my work network is pretty locked down and I couldn't find a UDP port that wasn't blocked. How are you guys setting up wireguard in your home network? Or is it better to host it on a cloud VM?

I'm using tailscale right now because it punches through every firewall but I don't like using external providers and I'm worried it will eventually enshittify. I have a cloudflare domain but I can't really use any UDP port for my VPN as it's blocked.

I'm self hosting audiobookshelf with tailscale. Also use home assistant with music assistant to play my podcasts on all my home speakers as well.
