Initial lemmy setup fails

My YunoHost server

Hardware: Hetzner cloud
YunoHost version: 11.0.9.5 (stable)
I have access to my server : both
Are you in a special context or did you perform some particular tweaking on your YunoHost instance ? : no

Description of my issue

Installing lemmy worked without a problem, but when I visit the site for the first time I’m asked to “Set Up Site Administrator”. When I create a new user this way I am next asked to set up the lemmy instance, but when I try to save it says “not an admin”.
When I do all that with the credentials I was sent per email it says “user already exists” in the first step and when I try to login I get a 404 error.

I tried to find a way to setup the site via ssh but didn’t succeed either.

We needs logs of your Lemmy instance, and the resource address that gives out a 404 error.

I think it’s wrong that the initial setup even creates a user if you already have an admin user after installing ynh. So this would be a bug, right?

Can anyone help here?

From looking at your site, that’s likely an app installation bug.
You probably need to file an issue to the yunohost application install script maintainer.

[edit]

Looks like it’s a known bug that needs reopening again.
