Help me log in to my self hosted container

trijste opened this issue · 7 comments

How do I create my own account and log in to it? I thought I would use the credentials in the docker-compose file, or change them. I tried to change aspects of the docker-compose file, but I could no longer reach the service at all. I've deleted the container, but would appreciate a lesson. Thanks!

Hi there, the environment variable PICSUR_ADMIN_PASSWORD in the docker compose decides the password of the user admin. This password is populated only on first start, after this the environment variable is no applicable. If you wish to change the password you will have to do so via the admin dashboard.
If you then want to add more users, you will have to either enable the registration permission on guests. Or manually add new users from the admin dashboard.

@CaramelFur Thanks for the response. I will give it another go. It will be just me. Ideally I can use Picur to host content and point to it for personal sites, like a portfolio.

@trijste Has the issue been resolved?

Is there any way to change the password forcefully? probably from database? I am currently locked out after recent update and my older password no longer working. All the images I have uploaded will be lost if I create new one from scratch.

I am able to logon with user id admin and password as picsur, but strangely after logon getting "you do not have permission to upload."
