Research direction

The payload names the Quick Start guide and .env; start by reproducing the Docker Compose startup with PORT=8084 and inspecting the resulting published-port and bind-address configuration. Done means the OpenProject container is reachable on the requested 0.0.0.0:8084 rather than localhost:8080.

Description

Hi

I follow the guide from this page: Quick Start to configure docker compose.

I only disabled the proxy (because I use nginx reverse proxy and disable cron too), I changed the port in .env as indicated on the page, but it doesn't matter, the container always opens on localhost:8080

Any tips?
