Environment variables doesn't seems to have effects

[SebDominguez]

Following the Docker production server installation guide

After trying to edit the .env file by setting INVENTREE_COMPANY_NAME or INVENTREE_EMAIL_PREFIX or even INVENTREE_BASE_URL doesn't have any effect on the Inventree configuration.

Company name stay blank, email subjects are still prefixed with [Inventree] no matter what I put on the INVENTREE_EMAIL_PREFIX environment variable, and the Base URL stay blank.

Are those settings only configurable via the config.yaml file?

These should be taking precedence if set in the environment variables. Can you please check if any other of your environment variables are not working at expected?

I've also tried INVENTREE_TIMEZONE=Europe/Madridor INVENTREE_TIMEZONE=ES but the docker compose logs still show me the UTC timestamp. Still playing around so I didn't tried all the environment variable yet.

Just tried to change INVENTREE_BASE_CURRENCY=EUR to INVENTREE_BASE_CURRENCY=USD and after a docker compose down && docker compose up -d no changes where made.

I still need to change the language in GUI because the environment variable INVENTREE_LANGUAGE doesn't have any effects.

Also came across weird things like the French translation having a lot of \' everywhere.

Is there some step that I am missing in order to configure InvenTree ?

@SebDominguez this may be due to how env variables are cached. Can you try:

1. docker compose restart
2. docker compose stop && docker compose up -d

And see if the environment variables are then loaded correctly in either case
