    Hello! I just created my first mastodon instance.

    After the application starts working, when I click to open it appears from the beginning without a user. I can't log in with my cloudron account. It appears without any user, not even the administrator.

    I managed to create a user through the terminal but no email is sent for confirmation, the same happens when I create a user directly in mastodon, also no confirmation email is sent. So I follow without users or administrators in the instance.

    What did I forget to do or am I doing it wrong?

      @matwinck well, something is clearly off. You don't need to create the admin user or any other user for that matter.

      Just to double check, can you please do a test install at https://my.demo.cloudron.io/ (username/password: cloudron). Do you see the same behavior in the demo? I am just trying to rule out obvious things like some browser issue. I tried a fresh install here and it has an admin user and am also able to login as Cloudron user. (And of course, our existing mastodon instance https://social.cloudron.io works just fine)

        @matwinck I am wondering if you hit this https://docs.cloudron.io/apps/mastodon/#username-restriction ? On Cloudron, usernames can be created with hyphen and dot. Such usernames cannot login to Mastodon and will get a "HTTP ERROR 422" when attempting to login. See https://github.com/mastodon/mastodon/issues/12020

            @girish Now, I'm still trying to access the mastodon admin panel. It currently says there is no administrator. I tried to add myself as an administrator in Terminal but I couldn't either. Do you have any suggestion? Thanks in advance!
