Hi @prof_mark. I'm kapa.ai, your friendly support bot. I will try to answer your question by searching through the knowledge base. :wave:

It seems you're encountering an issue with your Wasp database after deleting and recreating the Docker image. The error message suggests that the
Session table doesn't exist in your database, which typically indicates that the database schema is not up to date.
To resolve this issue, you need to run database migrations. In Wasp, migrations are usually applied automatically when you start the app, but in this case, it seems they weren't applied correctly. Here's what you can try:
1. First, make sure your database is running:
2. Then, instead of just wasp start, try running the migrations explicitly:
3. After the migrations are applied successfully, try starting your app again:
If the issue persists, you might need to check if there are any pending migrations or if the database was created correctly. You can try to reset the database completely:
1. Stop all Wasp processes.
2. Delete the Docker volume associated with your Wasp database. The volume name typically follows the pattern wasp-dev-db-<project-name>-<hash>.
3. Run wasp start db again to create a fresh database.
4. Run wasp db migrate-dev to apply all migrations.
5. Finally, run wasp start to start your app.
If you're still experiencing issues, it might be helpful to check the contents of your database to ensure all necessary tables are created. You can do this by connecting to the database directly, as described in this Discord thread (https://discord.com/channels/686873244791210014/1217295340785635418).
Remember, when you delete and recreate the Docker image, you're essentially starting with a fresh database, so it's crucial to reapply all migrations to set up the correct schema.
