Outline seems broken

In the logs I get:

Previously I tried installing Outline manually, but the official guide is broken 🫠 and I figured that Outline is also supported on Runtipi. DATABASE_URL is already defined in ~/runtipi/apps/outline/docker-compose.yml so I have no idea at this point. Can anyone reproduce this? Clean install of runtipi...
