Error Registering User via API

tanzeel

i also have same issue, i installed flarum locally, and its working , I can get token using this URL http://localhost/forum/public/api/token

{
	"identification" : "admin",
	"password": "1234"
}

But
when I try to create user using this API http://localhost/forum/public/api/users and header also include token that I get from the previous request. and here is body

{
	"data" : {
	"attributes" : {
	"username" : "test3",
        "password" : "12345678",
        "email"    : "test3@gmail.com"
		}
	}
}

user created in database successfully
But I got 500 status code

{
    "errors": [
        {
            "status": "500",
            "code": "unknown"
        }
    ]
}

this is response I got after posting new user.
what should I do?
any suggestions will be appreciated,
thank you. 🙂

tanzeel First of all, you shouldn't have /public in the URL. Second, if you turn debug mode on in config.php the error will show in the response - you can also check storage/logs/flarum-<date>.log for the error.

Hi Thank datitisev
i found this one in log file

production.ERROR: Swift_TransportException: Process could not be started [The system cannot find the path specified.
] in C:\laragon\www\forum\vendor\swiftmailer\swiftmailer\lib\classes\Swift\Transport\StreamBuffer.php:302

so what I am missing any idea?

i found the solution but i don't know it's 100% right
when I send data like this
{ "data" : { "attributes" : { "username" : "test5", "password" : "12345678", "email" : "test5@gmail.com", "isEmailConfirmed": true } } }
adding ** "isEmailConfirmed": true** in body,
then the user is created and it gives back the correct response.

tanzeel Check your mail settings - there's an issue with your mail configuration in Flarum.
