Describe your issue

I login failed after update to FreshhRSS 1.26.3~ynh1.
I did delete all my cookies from the domain and login with my user and when I try to open FreshRSS I get the error message.

I solved the problem with this solution:

  1. set auth mode to ā€˜none’ in FreshRSS config file (that was /var/www/freshrss/data/config.php for me)
  2. go to the web page of the app, you are logged in
  3. in the app go to Authentication and set to ā€œUse a formā€ or something like that
  4. log in through the app home page

Maybe this helps someone else too.

Today freshRSS did me logout - even I am still login with yunohost.
But now I can’t login anymore with my user/pass combination.
I did used FreshRSS since several years and this never happened. So I have no glue what I can do now. On the login page is no option to do something else and the config file has many options but I don’t know which one would help.

Again, I found the solution.
I guess the problem is that the Yunohost configuration for FreshRSS changed the login method or FreshRSS did changed it.
My problem was: in the past there was no need to configure the user in freshhRSS, so there was only the Yunohost Admin without a password. The Solution above recomments to change the login method in the FreshRSS web-options to ā€œwebformā€. So did I - when I was login. But after (automatic) logout, I can’t login anymore, because of the missing password.
Now I changed the config parameter ā€˜auth_type’ to ā€˜none’ and I was login again and could set a password.
