latest-base gives Error:No connection to the database

[gdeans]

I have MariaDB on my host already with remote connections enabled, so I'm trying to use the latest-base tag for the image without MySQL but I get this message in the setup wizard. No matter what I put in for the server name (localhost, localhost:3306, IP, IP:3306, etc.) the error never resolves.

Is there a way to define the SQL server parameters in the docker-compose or an env file?
