Hi, I’m mostly just documenting my frustration here, as well as posting a solution for others.
In 5.118.0 Ghost added email verification/2FA. If you’re like me and don’t have email configured, you’re probably very frustrated to be locked out of your own account.
Here’s the solution: run sudo nano /var/www/ghost/ghost/config.production.json. This will open the config file for your Ghost install. Change “staffDeviceVerification” from “true” to “false” and save (Ctrl+S) and exit (Ctrl+X) and restart your Ghost install. Then you’ll be able to log in again.
Note that you’ll have to do this again after every update, so keep that command handy.
