[Bug]: Issues starting container with PDNS API enabled #766
Description
Describe the problem
Trying to use the container image. When setting the env vars PA_PDNS_API_URL and PA_PDNS_API_KEY the container is in a restart loop. This is the produced log:
[2025-09-01 09:17:38] Poweradmin Docker Container Starting...

This seems to be an issue with the docker-entrypoint.sh. Tried to use set -xe to see more verbose logging, but it's ending with this:
+ validate_api_config
++ echo true
++ tr '[:upper:]' '[:lower:]'
+ local api_enabled=true
+ '[' true = true ']'
+ '[' -n http://pdns:8081 ']'
+ '[' -z 123456789 ']'
It seems to be exiting with the -z option.
