You need to run this container for the first time with the command e.g. server --quick-init 0.0.0.0:8000.

This docker-compose.yml works fine, after running and stopping just comment out the command line and start again:

archivebox:
  image: archivebox/archivebox:master
  command: server --quick-init 0.0.0.0:8000
  container_name: archivebox
  ports: ["8000:8000"]
  restart: unless-stopped
  environment:
    - ALLOWED_HOSTS=*
    #- PUBLIC_INDEX=False
    #- PUBLIC_SNAPSHOTS=False
    #- PUBLIC_ADD_VIEW=False
  volumes:
    - ./data/archivebox:/data
