It doesn't matter, sometimes it takes too long for the test. The container exists and is completely built. The password must be requested manually. There is no other way.

Aditionally, when I logged in to the machine, hoping to run the upgrade script, the page looks like Alpine defaults and the command would not run, suggesting an incomplete install.

You are looking in the proxmox console, check the container console, the command will run and you will find the username and password generated

I just tried to install a npmplus LXC and got the same error.
I installed it and erase it twice, then I tried to edit the /opt/compose.yaml to change the mail and password stored in it without luck.
It's very frustrating to be stuck in front of the login page !!!

Edit : when using default settings it works. Somehow when I use advance settings installation (and I only changed IP adress and gateway) it doesn't !

I ran into the same problem regarding the user creation. I used the advance settings so that I could configure the vlan tag. It looks like it installed, but I don't have the /opt/.npm_pwd file in the container for the password.

Okay, I checked the docker logs and the user/password was there. Looks good to go even though there was the error on creation.

I have the same issue.
Where can I find these logs in Proxmox?

Sorry, but where can I find these in Proxmox?
I can't find any docker logs in the GUI.
And Proxmox uses LXC containers, which is not Docker as far as I know.

When I try this from the Proxmox console I get:

-bash: docker: command not found

Tried on several of my Proxmox servers, always same error.

Also tried in the console of the LXC, same error.
