Is there any #Friendica admin out there reading this who's running their instance on a #Synology NAS using the setup instructions by Marius?

I seem to have a problem. Or two, I don't know.
The install finishes without errors and the instance is up and running. But: the global timeline is always empty, even though I can follow and also DM outside accounts.
Checking the logs of the cron and db containers, I see this:
Cron:
Waiting for MySQL friendica-db initialization...
DB:
...
2024-12-14 21:11:02 9 [Warning] Aborted connection 9 to db: 'unconnected' user: 'unauthenticated' host: '172.22.0.5' (This connection closed normally without authentication)

2024-12-14 21:10:02 0 [Note] InnoDB: Buffer pool(s) load completed at 241214 21:10:02
I guess the timelines are empty because cron is waiting for the db to initialize.
What am I missing?
Thanks in advance.

in reply to zeitverschreib [friendica] • • •that line looks like you are trying to connect to a remote database rather than one on the same server, without a user? So the DB isn't initializing because the credentials/location are wrong? Probably some passwords don't match in step 13?

in reply to silverwizard • • •@silverwizard The database is in a different container on the same docker installation. I copied the script from Marius' page and only changed the instance URL and admin mail address.
On my first try, I issued new passwords for redis, db, etc. Same problem. I then used the script verbatim, to make sure that I didn't introduce and password issues.
All containers created by the script have separate IPs.

in reply to silverwizard • • •@silverwizard After a re-install I still see problems with the db connect:
172.23.0.4 is the Friendica container
172.23.0.5 is the CRON container
Something's very wrong.

Yes, that works, but every attempt by the Cron container fails.
