GitHub user dosubot[bot] added a comment to the discussion: Alerts and Reports Emails Not Sending
<!-- Answer --> Your config changes aren’t being picked up because, in Docker Compose, Superset only loads custom config from `docker/pythonpath_dev/superset_config_docker.py`—not from `superset_config.py` elsewhere. This is why your alerts/reports aren’t triggering, even though everything looks correct in your current config. To fix this: 1. Copy your custom settings (feature flags, CeleryConfig, SMTP, Playwright, etc.) into `docker/pythonpath_dev/superset_config_docker.py`. Use `superset_config_local.example` as a template if needed. 2. Restart (or rebuild) all Superset containers. 3. Check your container logs for a message like `Loaded your Docker configuration at [...]` to confirm the override is loaded. If you see `Using default Docker config...`, your override wasn’t found. 4. Once loaded, your scheduled reports and emails should start working as expected. More details and confirmation of this config loading behavior are in the [official Docker README](https://github.com/apache/superset/blob/829e4d92d91ceae4b43b1ed3b063ffe45377799c/docker/README.md#L31-L39) and [docker config file](https://github.com/apache/superset/blob/829e4d92d91ceae4b43b1ed3b063ffe45377799c/docker/pythonpath_dev/superset_config.py#L18-L138). Let me know if moving your config and restarting fixes the issue! <!-- Dosu Comment Footer --> *To reply, just mention [@dosu](https://go.dosu.dev/dosubot).* --- <sup>How did I do?
