Hi, first I want to check to make sure you have the correct folder structure passed as a volume. Should be like:

.
├── config/
│   ├── config.yml
│   ├── db/
│   │   └── db.sqlite (generated)
│   ├── key (generated)
│   ├── letsencrypt/
│   │   └── acme.json (generated)
│   ├── logs/
│   └── traefik/
│       ├── traefik_config.yml
│       └── dynamic_config.yml
└── docker-compose.yml

The important one is the presence of config/db/.

If you confirm you already have this, then I can troubleshoot further.

Pangolin will now attempt to bootstrap the volume and create the needed paths. Hope that helps!
