I have a project with only this compose.yml
services:
postgresql:
image: postgres:latest
container_name: postgresql
ports:
- "5432:5432"
environment:
POSTGRES_USER: user
POSTGRES_PASSWORD: password
POSTGRES_DB: test_db
But when I use table plus or pgadmin4 to view I get an error about the user
user. I can connect with pgadmin using postgres
as the user though. So it looks like it only creates a postgres
user and the default postgres
db?
I'm getting this error
connection to server at "127.0.0.1", port 5432 failed: FATAL: role "user" does not exist
This exact file was creating user
and test_db
a week ago. So I'm not sure what has changed. It's the only file in the project aside from a nuke shell command
#!/bin/bash
# Stop and remove all containers
docker stop $(docker ps -aq)
docker rm $(docker ps -aq)
# Remove all volumes
docker volume rm $(docker volume ls -q)
# Remove all images
docker rmi $(docker images -aq)
this makes sure there are no volumes, images, or containers
am I missing something? Shouldn't
POSTGRES_USER: user
POSTGRES_PASSWORD: password
POSTGRES_DB: test_db
create the user and test_db?

As the answer was resolved in the comment section i just want to explain what was the OP's issue:
default port 5432 for postgres in host machine was occupied by some other service, pobably another running container
for verification:
The diffrent host port was bind done with pg container default port
i.e 5433:5432
services:
postgresql:
image: postgres:latest
container_name: postgresql
ports:
- "5433:5432"
environment:
POSTGRES_USER: user
POSTGRES_PASSWORD: password
POSTGRES_DB: test_db
Therfore service started running as expected, so it was concluded the host port 5432
was occupied.
what to take from here:
always try to bind your host port to any other open port in your machine if you default port bind dont work for verification when you face similar issue
