Description

Hi, I had following error when running open project with docker-compose:

initdb: error: The program "postgres" is needed by initdb but was not found in the

To fix that I had to change:
services: db: image: postgres:13
to:
services: db: image: postgres:13-bullseye

Please take a look into that issue.

Research direction

Start with the Docker Compose configuration for the db service and reproduce the reported initdb error using postgres:13. Compare that behavior with postgres:13-bullseye and verify the chosen image allows the project to start successfully; the issue is done when the documented Compose setup initializes without the missing postgres error.
