Help Windows Docker DEsktop - Postgres container restart boot
Hi
I can't get the postgres container to run correctly, it is always restarting.
I have tried with the windows recommendations to use a new volume ‘pgdata’, and the behaviour is the same.
What could be happening?
Logs container postgres:
2024-12-28 10:26:39 The files belonging to this database system will be owned by user "postgres".
2024-12-28 10:26:39 This user must also own the server process.

2024-12-28 10:26:39 The database cluster will be initialized with locale "en_US.utf8".
2024-12-28 10:26:39 The default database encoding has accordingly been set to "UTF8".
2024-12-28 10:26:39 The default text search configuration will be set to "english".
