Docker: ADMIN_PASSWORD is not passing

[Langoor2]

Describe the bug
Setup a clean etherpad with mariadb database, as according to the instructions on the Wiki.
If i set "ADMIN_PASSWORD" to any value, this value is not passed/parsed correctly, in the config i can see that it is still set to the default admin password.

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. set "ADMIN_PASSWORD" with docker
2. login to the /admin/ ui
3. the default admin/admin credentials are always accepted
4. in the currently running settings you can see that it is using admin/admin

Expected behavior
It uses the admin password I configured

Hello.
Many thanks for the maintenance and development of etherpad.

Unfortunately I encountered a similar problem:
my setup:

• portainer
• stack from github
• set two environment variables:
  • DOCKER_COMPOSE_APP_PORT_PUBLISHED and
  • DOCKER_COMPOSE_APP_ADMIN_PASSWORD

That means I use exactly the standard docker-compose.yml file from the etherpad-lite repository.
The only thing I changed is the port and the password

If I deploy the stack like this, all ehtherpad functions work and the port is also mapped correctly.

Only logging in as admin doesn't work.

If I connect to the container interactively and display the environment variables, the value I set is under ADMIN_PASSWORD.
But login fails with username: admin and password: hello1233456
And login also fails with username: admin and password: admin.

What could that be about?

Thanks for the help.
