📝 Describe your problem

I have a docker container for a discord bot that is for sure running and working properly as expected, however for some reason Uptime Kuma is showing the monitor "Down" with a status message of "Starting" with yellow bars rather than being "Up" with green bars.

I have triple checked that the docker host connected is correct, the container name is correct, and have also tried using the container id in both short and long format.

I have many other monitors for Docker containers and they work as expected, it's only this one that is like this.

Why could this be and how can I fix this?
