@UsefulVid, it looks like the Photoview container doesn't have access to the DB. I guess that this is one of many issues, existing in the current docker-compose config from the master branch. Please try the config from my PR #863, where I fixed many previously detected issues.
Please let me know if that helps or not.

My Container Station is not happy with the github url. Which URL should I use?

[kkovaletp]

@UsefulVid, you need to open that URL in your browser and read the changes in Readme file, then follow the instructions for the docker deployment and download the .env and docker-compose examples from this branch and edit them as described
