Cannot initialize project - An error occurred while requesting the API

[AndreasScharfCPB]

Hi,
when I start the docker container from fresh (doesn't matter if its sqlite or posgres) everything seems to work fine.
But calling the admin console gives a warning:
"An error occurred while rewuesting the API"
and then the loading spinner never terminates .

In the containers log there is no error or warning.
In the browser console I see:
Content Security Policy: The page’s settings blocked the loading of a resource at http://localhost:1337/admin/project-type (“connect-src”).
Content Security Policy: The page’s settings blocked the loading of a resource at http://localhost:1337/admin/init (“connect-src”).

It seems wrong that the browser tries to reach out to localhost. So somewhere strapi does not know its own base_href

Fixed it by setting a host (https://docs.strapi.io/dev-docs/configurations/admin-panel#available-options) in config/admin.js and rebuilding the admin-panel with "yarn build". Restart your container and all should be working.

Edit: Best would be setting a env-variable to keep it update-safe

I have the same Issue, but I dont know what to add to my host env. how can I change the config/admin.js, when I only pulled the docker image ?
