MAIL_PORT: Invalid number input: ""

[herzkerl]

I've just set up v3 from scratch and see the following error when starting for the first time:

================================
 Invalid environment variables:
    MAIL_PORT: Invalid number input: ""

 Exiting with error code 1

When you write MAIL_PORT= the value will becomes "" which is an empty string. And MAIL_PORT can't be empty.

Either remove MAIL_PORT or pass a number to it. Make sure to update other variables as well.

I deleted everything regarding mail from .env, still seeing the same error. Then I set MAIL_PORT=465, still the same. Is there anything else I need to check?

[poeti8]

Weird. Did you set environment variables anywhere else? Can you also tell me on which platform and how are your running Kutt?

@poeti8 - same issue with me, trying to run app in local with env variables copied to .env, running in docker mac m3 machine

[poeti8]

I just added a default value for MAIL_PORT on the.example.env file on the new version to avoid confusion. Please try again now.

[herzkerl]

I started from scratch, i.e. deleted the container and volumes, and copied the values from .example.env to my .env and still see the same error.

Can't reproduce

[herzkerl]

I removed the containers, the volumes, the project folder, cloned the repo again, copied the .env file and changed a few values (port, site_name, default_domain, jwt_secret), changed the external port in docker-compose.yml, and ran docker compose up -d.

I'm still seeing the exact same issue in the logs.
