```custom
HOST_ADDRESS=localhost
# HOST_PROTOCOL=http://
# HOST_PORT=80
LIC_OWNER=REPLACE_ME
LIC_KEY=REPLACE_ME
GLOBAL_KEY=e5NUyn2kfwEgH7Y7dJqUk
POSTGRES_PASSWORD=postgres
NEO4J_PASSWORD=testinsights01
HOST_POSTGRES_VOLUME=/data/postgres
HOST_NEO4J_VOLUME=/data/neo4j/data
```

### 1.2 Restart

Restart the Quality Modeller environment by executing the following command:

```none
./run.sh
```
