How could I this be used to just restart a portainer container after a system reboot - possibly with a 20 sec delay after the reboot has happened

I have added the proposed lines and edited "app_app_1".
But I get this error:
No log line matching the '' filter

@BulldozerPete it's not an error, there are just no logs for the container.
