Misleading documentation when using docer + postgresql

🚧 Installation

Hello! I am trying to use nextcloud in docker (with apache) and to connect with a postgres sql server on the host. Postgres is accepting remote connections and nextcloud user is added in the host (i have tested

![image|690x43](upload://tMbzuFln9vDxheVMB2QnwSWCrZW.png)

This is the image from a windows computer

hence, with this established I have the following docker-compose file

version: '3.7'

services:
  app:
    container_name: nextcloud
    image: nextcloud
    restart: always
    volumes:
      - /var/lib/nextcloud/app:/var/www/html:rw
      - /media/storage/srv/nextcloud:/var/www/html/data:rw
      - /var/log/nextcloud:/var/log
    ports:
      - 8084:80
    environment:
      - NEXTCLOUD_ADMIN_USER=
      - NEXTCLOUD_ADMIN_PASSWORD=
      - POSTGRES_DB=nextcloud
      - POSTGRES_USER=nextcloud
      - POSTGRES_PASSWORD=
      - POSTGRES_HOST=192.168.10.100


    env_file:
      - .env

With this, I get the error in the apache root (whith is /media/storage/srv/nextcloud)

I have tried a few options in the docker compose, but per my understanding this is a documentatioon bug or I am missing something. I hope my issue will help others as well and I am offering to write a post or some clarification.

your postgres db is on another host?
