If environment variable validation fails, CPU usage is very high

[freinbichler]

Today after updating to version 0.7.2 and 0.7.3, which caused issues #33 and #35, my server CPU usage was constantly at >90%. Probably there is an endless loop running trying to validate the config again and again.
After I stopped the (broken) teslamatetelegrambot container, CPU usage returned to normal:

Probably there is an endless loop running trying to validate the config again and again.

Yeah, no more releases for me after 3 hours sleep

I assume you have restart: unless-stopped in your docker-compose.yml config. This causes the container to restart on every exit beside of a docker compose stop.
So its kind of expected behavior.

However Logs would indicate it:

True, I have restart: unless-stopped in my docker compose config. However, I do not see exited with code 1
