What steps will reproduce the bug?
Reading and following the documentation:
I set that environment variable and used it in my init scripts, however, I failed to log in as postgres user.
After a lot of tries and errors, I've grabbed through your script to find out, that it's not the variable that is actually taken for postgres password. The variable
POSTGRESQL_PASSWORD
is taken, unlessPOSTGRESQL_USERNAME
happens to be set to a value other than default.What is the expected behavior?
The documentation should point out, that
POSTGRESQL_POSTGRES_PASSWORD
is used to initialize postgres password under only special circumstances (point them:POSTGRESQL_USERNAME
is set to a other value than "postgres")What do you see instead?
The documentation is misleading, it suggests, that
POSTGRESQL_POSTGRES_PASSWORD
is always taken.The text was updated successfully, but these errors were encountered:
