Xwiki (Docker Container) Installation cancelled

Question

so I wanted to test Xwiki and the simplest way I thought would be a Docker Container. I never worked with Docker or Wiki before, so my knowledge is very basic. I now have a Xwiki and a mysql container running. But the xwiki installation cancelled when I tried to enter an admin account. How can I return to this installation process without resetting everything?

Thanks.

Could you be more precise when you say "the xwiki installation cancelled when I tried to enter an admin account". Also you should check the xwiki docker documentation at https://hub.docker.com/_/xwiki/ which has explanations on how to use docker's -v parameter to map directory in the image to local directories. This allows to rerun or recreate the container without loosing your xwiki data.

Last, you could also ask for help on the xwiki forum site at https://forum.xwiki.org/.
