I found a similar thread titled "【BUG】Environment variable error" which is currently unsolved ^[1].

Regarding the issue you're facing, the MAX_ITERATIONS_NUM environment variable is used to set the maximum number of iterations allowed in the Dify codebase. It is initialized with a default value of 5, and can be updated by setting the NEXT_PUBLIC_MAX_ITERATIONS_NUM environment variable or by using the data-public-max-iterations-num attribute in the document body ^[2].

In your case, even though the MAX_ITERATIONS_NUM is set to 30 in the Docker container, the user interface is still showing a maximum of 5 iterations. This discrepancy suggests that the environment variable might not be correctly applied or recognized by the application. Ensure that the environment variable is correctly set in the .env file and that the Docker containers are restarted after making changes to the environment variables ^[3].

If the issue persists, it might be worth checking if there are any specific Docker configurations or scripts that handle environment variable management, as these could affect how the variables are loaded and applied ^[4].
