Wanderer & Planka - initial login after app installation fails

[marklo]

What app is this about, and its version: Wanderer 0.18.3~ynh1
What YunoHost version are you running: YunoHost 12.1.28 (stable)
What type of hardware are you using: VPS bought online

Describe your issue

The initial login after installation fails with “invalid credentials”. This happened also after I installed Planka 1.26.3~ynh1.
So I’m not sure if it is truly app-specific or has to do with my YunoHost in general.
Since I put my typical YunoHost credentials during the installation process of the app, I would think that the installation then also creates an admin user for the freshly installed app.
But it did not.
How can I create an admin user of the installed app if there is no “register option” at the frontpage of the app which looks in my opinion like it should.
Many excuses, but I’m a newbie.

Update for planka:

I’ve found the issue that was preventing admin login, if you haven’t uninstalled the app you can edit the .env file and fill in the missing user name,

sudo yunohost app shell planka
nano .env

And fill whatever under DEFAULT_ADMIN_NAME

If you have uninstalled and you are impatient you can try installing from test PR with

sudo yunohost app install https://github.com/YunoHost-Apps/planka_ynh/tree/fix-admin-creation

For wanderer I think you have to create an account. The one provided during install is for the admin (which is not necessarily an user I think), could you try?

There’s an account provisioned during install for the_user_you_chose@domain.tld (note: this uses an e-mail as login, not username) and the password provided, cannot test if it works as my VM blows up with OOM when installing the app.

NVM, indeed I cannot log in as well

Many thanks for the replies so far! I will check and come back…

I installed Planka (Version: 1.26.3~ynh2) again and now it works… I can log in with the admin credentials. But maybe I was just more careful when filling out the installation form this time… In any case, THANK YOU!
Now I will check with Wanderer…

I actually fixed the problem Planka had, hence the successful install.

I still have no clue what’s bothering Wanderer though
