Does your car have the MCU1 which has the "old" energy management system? If so make sure to disable "Always connected" in the energy saving settings. Additionally this article could be helpful to identify the problem.

Just a small suggestion. A large portion of this guide seems to be creating the docker compose file and getting it on your synology. Instead of creating it windows, transferring it to your NAS and then moving it to the appropriate directory, either just create it on your synology via the command line. It is quite simple.

1. Copy and paste contents of your desired yaml file to your clipboard.
2. In the correct directory, vi docker-compose.yml
3. Go into insert mode by pressing i
4. Paste the contents (usually via right click)
5. Save and quit vi (press esc, then : and type wg)

This isn't working for me. I create the docker file and when the Teslamate instance comes up, it complains saying the Postgres role "teslamate" doesn't exist.

Is teslamate instance supposed to do that for us? The instance keeps restarting, by the time I open a console.. the instance dies and I can't even try to create the db myself.

Thanks all for those detailled instructions !

Is it safe to change ownership on the @docker folder ?

As you instructed to install using root, my admin account has no access, so no way to run a backup or a snapshot..

I'm having issues after a few failed installs. Now I'm getting everything to work, but the existing database fell out of sync. I'm getting a password failed error in the teslamate docker container.

What's odd is that I attempt to delete the teslamate_db volume, but i'm still getting errors after a new compose. I've tried to locate the DB on my NAS and can't find it to delete the old DB or password config file, or anything. Can I get some assistance?

15:13:58.024 [error] Postgrex.Protocol (#PID<0.231.0>) failed to connect: ** (Postgrex.Error) FATAL 28P01 (invalid_password) password authentication failed for user "teslamate"

I struggled with these for a while and found out the configuration above is a bit off...

# "localhost" with the hostname / IP address of the docker host.
- TZ=US # (optional) replace to use local time in debug logs. See "Configuration".
