Login into the admin panel

[O2-AC]

I'm trying to install a test instance of the ELN following the guide in the documentation and am able to access http://localhost/roc.
However, upon login as [email protected] with the password set in the .env file, I get the error message Wrong username or password.
I've double checked that the password in the .env file is identical to the one I'm entering in the WebUI and am out of ideas now.
I should say that due to the test environment I cannot access the server by its domain name and have to use the IP address. Hence, I haven't changed the variables REST_ON_COUCH_SESSION_DOMAIN and REST_ON_COUCH_ORIGINS to anything from the placeholder REPLACEME.

Hi @O2-AC, thanks for the feedback.

Could you maybe also post the logs when you try to do the operation, e.g. the tail of docker-compose logs?

@kjappelbaum sure thing.
I find this error in the couchdb container:

Hi, sorry for the delay in coming back to you.
This comment is interesting

I should say that due to the test environment I cannot access the server by its domain name and have to use the IP address. Hence, I haven't changed the variables REST_ON_COUCH_SESSION_DOMAIN and REST_ON_COUCH_ORIGINS to anything from the placeholder REPLACEME.

can you post the .env file you're using (without the passwords)
