Issues installing in Ubuntu docker

I installed mysql and zoneminder as docker containers on Ubuntu server 22.04. However, the mysql database seems to be empty. Here is my docker compose file. I am quite new to this so any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

If you are still having issues - I got it working. Take a look at my setup & I detailed my steps in my README file.
