Crash when starting: File "/usr/local/bin/daphne", line 8, in <module>

See original GitHub issue

Hi there, I updated to the newest version and not my openwisp is always crashing:

Here is a stack trace (taken with docker logs from the dashboard container):

It looks like a environment variable called API_DOMAIN is missing. How to I set it in the container? I am starting it with make start like in the manual.

Thanks
