Describe the bug
Description of the Issue
When attempting the initial setup of Open Archiver using the official docker-compose.yml, the database migration (db:migrate) consistently fails with the error FATAL: password authentication failed for user "admin" unless the POSTGRES_PASSWORD environment variable is set to the default value password.
If the POSTGRES_PASSWORD is set to anything else (e.g., supersecret123), the application fails to connect to the PostgreSQL service, even though the configuration appears correct.
To Reproduce
Use the official docker-compose.yml (which specifies postgres:17-alpine).
Create a .env file with the following critical lines:
Expected behavior
The open-archiver container successfully connects to the postgres service with any other then the default password.
System:
latest -> 0.4.0
