Great, thanks. Can you now test it in a container? I think you'll need to
map the file location in the container to the host machine, and then
specify the location in the container (e.g. /pgpass in the example below)
when you configure the server in pgAdmin. e.g.
docker run -p 80:80 \
-e "PGADMIN_DEFAULT_EMAIL=u...@domain.com" \
-e "PGADMIN_DEFAULT_PASSWORD=SuperSecret" \
-v "/path/on/host/to/pgpass:/pgpass" \
-d dpage/pgadmin4
