Configuration change in exesting installation is not working about docker

[nupplaphil]

My uses cases are :

• I want to add a new admin user : here in addition i'm wondering if the parameter has the good name admin_mail instead of admin_email : corresponding code

This is indeed a bug .. it should be the same config name like the db-entry

• I change the host and the password of my database : i'm wondering if in that case the issue is that these settings are only used in the installation process with autoinstall.

You and @focalfury are right. The current problem is that we persist the dbhost/user/name into the config/local.config.php, which makes it impossible to change it through the parameter again.

A fix would be to avoid saving any entry into the local.config.php file and instead load it through the environment variables.

This seems possible, I'll give it a try

not an expert by any means but I do believe those params are only used for auto installation. Even if you didn't provide them you could go set up the database manually and friendica settings in the config files to get it working.

You are right but I'm not sure it is what we can except in a docker installation.
Modifying local files is working but it is not usual to do so in a container setup with env variables.
