### Describe your issue
Hi everyone,
I recently installed Yunohost 12.0.8.2 on my newly bought LIME 2 server. I use it as an Internet Cube with a VPN, so I used the post-installation tool from [GitHub - labriqueinternet/install: New all-in-one interface to install an internet cube](https://github.com/labriqueinternet/install/) (\*). After installation and post-installation, I can login :
- as root via SSH (from the local network)
- as Yunohost first user via the webadmin
but with the same account, I can’t login as user, neither via SSH nor on the user portal.
Via SSH, my credentials are denied. On the user portal I get a 504 error with message : [POST] “https://[domain\_name].nohost.me/yunohost/portalapi/login”: 504
I tried to create another user via the webadmin and got the same issue.
The diagnosis and journalctl show no issue with the yunohost-portal-api service. Please let me know what logs could be relevant to diagnose this.
Thanks !
EDIT 11/12/24 10h35 : forgot to mention that it looks like this issue : [504 error at SSO login - #5 by roundnround](https://forum.yunohost.org/t/504-error-at-sso-login/31824/5), which unfortunately didn’t get a solution yet.
EDIT 11/12/24 10h39 : formatting
EDIT 11/12/21 10h42 : (\*) sorry I forgot to explain that, because the internet cube tool doesn’t handle the backup password for the domain, I first used a dummy domain, then manually created the yunohost domain afterwards, following theses instructions : [https://doc.yunohost.org/en/dns\_nohost\_me#adding-a-nohost-me-noho-s](https://doc.yunohost.org/en/dns_nohost_me#adding-a-nohost-me-noho-s)

Update : after changing the password to a shorter one, I can now use it to login via SSH and sudo. But the 504 error on the user portal remains.

I managed to make this works by changing proxy\_read\_timeout from 5s to 30s for location /yunohost/portalapi/ in /etc/nginx/conf.d/yunohost\_api.conf.inc. But I suppose it is not normal that it takes so long.
