I was trying to create a new database in my already existing postgres container.
But it is skipping the database initialization part.
I am getting this message after running the docker-compose up command: "PostgreSQL Database directory appears to contain a database; Skipping initialization"
docker-compose.yml
version: '3'
services:
db:
container_name: db
environment:
POSTGRES_DB=new_db_name
volumes:
- pgdata:/var/lib/postgresql/data
app:
container_name: app
depends_on:
- db
I am providing new database name. So it should create a new database, right?
But it is not happening.
Please help.
