Hi everyone,

I’m having an issue running Mautic on Kubernetes. Every time I delete a pod and a new one starts, Mautic forces me to go through the installation process again, causing me to lose my previous configuration.

Here are some details:

- I’m using **Docker Mautic version 5.0.3-apache**.
- The database remains intact.
- Mautic files are mounted in a Persistent Volume Claim (PVC), so they should remain unchanged.

**Question:**  
Why does Mautic trigger the installer every time a new pod starts? Which files are responsible for storing the session and configuration to prevent this issue?

Thanks in advance for your help!
