Authentication Configuration

[kahrpatrick]

The following warning is shown in listmonk after the upgrade to 1.8.0.:

Remove the admin_username and admin_password fields from the TOML configuration file or environment variables. If you are using APIs, create and use new API credentials before removing the them. Visit Admin -> Settings -> Users dashboard. Learn more.

You mention OpenID integration in the changelog, do I need to configure this manually on an existing instance?

[nebulon]

Unfortunately there is no smooth upgrade path from an app installed without user directory integration to start using it. Mostly this is because the user-mappings are hard to do in an automated way.

Currently, the only option is to install a fresh app instance with Cloudron user management and then migrate the data (database export/import...) and potentially do the user-mapping manually.

Alright, thank you for the explanation. I'll reinstall the app then.

@nebulon I just spun up a new installation but OICD doesn't work. Says User not found

[fbartels]

@andreasdueren i don't know if this is the only way, but when I encountered this error message i manually created a user with the same username as my cloudron user. Afterwards i could use oidc for login.

[andreasdueren]

@fbartels That's a workaround I'd like to avoid and have people onboard automatically instead

@andreasdueren https://github.com/knadh/listmonk/issues/2119 . Listmonk does not have automatic user creation yet.

[andreasdueren]

@Joseph Oh I see it's an upstream issue. Apologies I thought there was something wrong with the current implementation.
