I solved it because the volumes were overwritten and the .env file could no longer be read. Now I only have the uploads as one volume, but I will also switch that to S3

You got me on the right tracks. Thanks a lot!

In my case there were two reasons.

I've edited cms/config/database.js according to what copilot said (not very good idea). Next time I'll just check the docs.
I wasn't copying .env file while preparing docker image.

So I guess missing env variables and incorrect database.js can cause this issue.
