New installation of wordpress app on up to date yunohost : can't access admin page

What type of hardware are you using: Raspberry Pi 3, 4+
What YunoHost version are you running: 12.0.17
What app is this about: Wordpress

Describe your issue

After installation of wordpress in multisite with a dedicated subdomain and within a speficied directory ( /formation ), it is possible to see welcome but impossible to log into https://mysite/formation/wp-login.php, it fails and come back to portal.

I dig into the subjet and got the problem from nginx traces.

This is due to an update in latest companion auto update plugin ( - Revision 3329089: /companion-auto-update ) that removed cau_menloc and kept only cau_url but forgot that cau_menloc was still called in some place.

I managed to get it working only by setting this :

define( ‘AUTOMATIC_UPDATER_DISABLED’, true );

in /var/www/wordpress/wp-config.php

to deactivate autoupdate.

and restarted php fpm related service.
