Sorry, I started the service, the error was in the configuration file, I did not correctly indicate the ports.  
But it seems that the import of files does not occur, it is stuck in one place:

```auto
ivan@geo-api:~/openpoiservice$ docker exec -it d60b62812d7a /ops_venv/bin/python manage.py import-data
Found directory: /deploy/app/osm
Found directory: /deploy/app/osm/north-america-latest.osm-gh
INFO: __main__ :Starting to import OSM data...['/deploy/app/osm/north-america-latest.osm.pbf']

INFO:openpoiservice.server.db_import.parser:Parsing and importing nodes...
INFO:openpoiservice.server.db_import.parse_osm:Pois: 1000, tags: 963, categories: 1074

```

I tried different files, even very small ones, but nothing happens.
