My Raspberry Pi 4 became inaccessible

Hi guys, I come in your help in dire need :( the thing is I was trying
to create File Browser as docker container in my rpi server through
windows cmd. The thing got stuck in a loop while deploying the
container, so I closed the window. Then, when I tried to logging with
passwordless ssh I got the message "Permission denied (publickey)".

Now I can't log in with ssh keys or password because I disabled it
long time ago (big mistake)..

These are the docker lines I used to provoke this mess:

docker run \\

\-v \~/:/srv \\

\-v /home/arimeberry/filebrowser/database/filebrowser.db:/database/fil
ebrowser.db \\

\-v /home/arimeberry/filebrowser/config/settings.json:/config/settings
.json \\

\-e PUID=$(id -u) \\

\-e PGID=$(id -g) \\

\-p 8080:80 \\

filebrowser/filebrowser:s6

If there is anything I can do to revert this I will be very grateful!

Also, I should note I can still use portainer somehow.

Thanks!

It's been a while since I've used a rpi, but it's just Linux, so you
should be able to boot it into single user mode and reset the
password.

What does it show when you plug it into a monitor?

Remove the memory card and mount it on another pc, edit the config
files to make it boot or atleast accessible through ssh again.

Your Docker deployment has nothing to do with your SSH refusing a
publickey login, and it has nothing to do with selfhosting.

Plug your rpi to a monitor and keyboard. We can't guess any error logs
from here without you providing them to us - we don't even know what
OS you are running if everything is up to date, what other software /
containers you have installed.
An other way would be to access your sd-card and have a look at the
logs and then accordingly adjust config files.
And the third one: Restore the backup you took before you started
deploying a new container.
