Hi I am running limesurvey in a container. After every restart of the container, limesurvey shows me the installation set up form again, when I try to access it. After I enter the db credentials again, it recognizes the installation and forwards me to the admin page where everything is ok. Users still exist, survey etc. 
-> Which is logical since the image downloads the limesurvey zip and unzips it. so it's like an original installation. 

My question: whats the "marker" for limesurvey to forward me to the installation site. How can I prevent that?
thx

The repeated installation setup after container restart in LimeSurvey could be caused by the absence of a marker indicating a completed installation. Check persistent storage for LimeSurvey configuration and data across container restarts. This helps in retaining the installation state and avoid the system from initiating the setup process repeatedly. For installation you can follow the steps from  Installation procedure for limesurvey 2.0 - LimeSurvey Manual .

Hi thank you for your answer.
Yes you are right. I already solved it by mounting a volume in the container to persist the data. the solved it.
