Something is crashing in your MariaDB container..
Can you add DEBUG_MODE=TRUE to the MariaDB environment variables and post here?

Thanks - What host operating system are you running Docker on? This looks familiar to some of the stuff we were seeing a few years back when running on Windows systems.

Can you make sure you are trying with a fresh database (deleting any of the exported volumes) as well?

[4n70w4]

Windows 10 Enterprise

It was a launch with clean volumes.

For example mariadb:10.4 from https://github.com/Mailtrain-org/mailtrain/blob/development/docker-compose.yml starts ok.

[tiredofit]

OK, definitely related then. There's not much different between my mariadb image and the official other than a few performance tweaks - You can certainly get by using the official MariaDB image if that works for you. It also may be related to volume declarations, where as my example dictates directly to a file system location. Regardless, let me know if it works.

[4n70w4]

Mariadb justified by something? Under Docker on Windows, it works unstably and much slower than a clean MySql.

I'm not sure I follow your comment?

I have the same issue on Debian 10 Buster
