What is the issue you are experiencing?

I am trying to install Mealie on a docker container using a pre-existing Postgresql. After installation I was not able to log in using the default credentials. I found in another bug report that the cause could be that the database already existed during installation. This was the case because the sql-user for mealie doesn't have permission to create a database, so I created one on beforehand. The solution given in that thread was then to run init_db.py. This was the result:

root@docker:~/docker/mealie# docker exec mealie python /app/mealie/db/init_db.py INFO: 20-Feb-24 17:43:03 Database connection established. Traceback (most recent call last): File "/app/mealie/db/init_db.py", line 113, in <module> main() File "/app/mealie/db/init_db.py", line 91, in main if db_is_at_head(alembic_cfg): File "/app/mealie/db/init_db.py", line 49, in db_is_at_head directory = script.ScriptDirectory.from_config(alembic_cfg) File "/opt/pysetup/.venv/lib/python3.10/site-packages/alembic/script/base.py", line 226, in from_config return ScriptDirectory( File "/opt/pysetup/.venv/lib/python3.10/site-packages/alembic/script/base.py", line 107, in __init__ raise util.CommandError( alembic.util.exc.CommandError: Path doesn't exist: '/alembic'. Please use the 'init' command to create a new scripts folder.

When I execute the init script, this was the result: root@docker:~/docker/mealie# docker exec mealie python /opt/poetry/venv/lib/python3.10/site-packages/poetry/console/commands/init.py Traceback (most recent call last): File "/opt/poetry/venv/lib/python3.10/site-packages/poetry/console/commands/init.py", line 12, in <module> from cleo.helpers import option ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'cleo'

Steps to Reproduce

1. Create database 'mealie' on preexisting postgresql
2. Install mealie docker container
3. Notice you can't log in into the UI given the default credentials and notice database is empty
4. Run docker exec mealie python /app/mealie/db/init_db.py
