i am experiencing this error from the devlake pod, the pod keeps crashing in a loop.

hi @Zachnjue, how did you install the devlake, how did you generate the encrytion secret?

[Zachnjue]

I installed the devlake using helm. I generated the encryption secret using this command: ENCRYPTION_SECRET=$(openssl rand -base64 2000 | tr -dc 'A-Z' | fold -w 128 | head -n 1)

hi @Zachnjue , is it a new setup or a upgrade? did you try to install multiple times or upgrade? from the error invalid encryptionSecret, it seems it's not a clean setup

[Zachnjue]

I tried to install it multiple times. what's the workaround or solution in this case?

@Zachnjue I think you need to wipe out the database before installation. Either delete the related MySQL volume or connect to the database and ensure there is no table in the database.
