Account creation errors with status code 405

Support
1

So I have used the docker run command to install the docker frontend, and whenever I try to create an account, then I get the error request failed with status code 405. any idea as to what I did wrong? I ran it with the command:
docker run -d -p 3675:80 vikunja/frontend
I get this error:
image

Edit: I tried it with the “no proxy docker-compose setup” here, and still get the same error, plus the database logs this error:
2022-09-02 21:38:14 198 [Warning] Access denied for user 'vikunja'@'172.18.0.4' (using password: YES)

What’s in the api logs? Is the api running and working correctly?

checking the api logs, it seems to be properly running (I think)

so it does seem to be working properly. the environmental variables should be properly should be properly configured, the docker-compose file I used to set it up:

where the items in <> are replaced with their actual values
it does appear that maria db is trying to run the version for ubuntu, rather than Debian which I am using, could that be the cause, if so, what would be the fix? as far as I know, it should auto-pull the correct architecture, so that shouldn’t be the problem (I am using arm64)

Can you reach the api at http://<ip>:3456/api/v1/info?

The host os should not matter, it’s docker after all. You can check if you can get a mariadb container working on its own or use a different image (for example the one from linuxserver.io).
If that still won’t work I’d try postgres instead.

I can reach the api at the url

installing a separate installation of maria, it seems to be working properly

I found the solution, It seems that by default the “using installation at:” was using the frontend port by default, and simply changing it to use the api port instead worked
