Cant create/log into accounts

ExZiByte

I have successfully installed Flarum finally and now I and my community cant create accounts.
I know we arent supposed to be using Flarum in a production enviroment but I accept the risk of it being in beta.
I have no log of flarum as it hasnt created one yet.
Any idea on how to fix this?
I also cant log in or out of accounts (including the admin account)
It keeps saying "Requested Resouce was not found"

This is on a brand new Flarum install?

I see you had issues with a Flarum install already and got it working. Can you do a few things for me?

If you have Cloudflare, refresh its cache.
Run php flarum cache:clear in your flarum root directory
Hard refresh your browser (CTRL+F5)
Turn on debug (in config.php, change debug's value to true) and try the login again. If it comes up with an error, click DEBUG and paste the error you see in the popup box here.

If these don't resolve the problem, please run php flarum info in your flarum root directory and paste the output here. You can use ``` to enclose the output for easier reading.

Check that the URL in your config.php and the URL you use to access the site are the same (exact same, including WWW).

am i supposed to have a file/folder named "login" in my flarum install directory

luceos

No. If you can't log in or register your url rewriting is set up incorrectly. In case you have apache make sure the .htaccess is in place, for nginx follow the instructions in the documentation.

If you have Flarum installed in a subfolder and running Apache set a RewriteBase in your htaccess (see other threads by searching for RewriteBase ?)

ExZiByte

i still cant signup or login

jordanjay29

ExZiByte Can you output the contents of your .htaccess file here? Again, you can use ``` to enclose the code so it's easier to read.

I remove the RewriteBase cause when I added it. The website failed to load at all
Without the RewriteBase it loads fine just cant login or signup accounts (including logging into the admin account)

ExZiByte

I have fixed the problem of creating accounts and logging into the admin account by deleting all the files and recreating them. But i still have a problem with sending the confirmation emails and I need help with configuring smtp. I have followed this tutorial https://discuss.flarum.org/d/620-smtp-setup/19 i have even tried the vingle/flarum-configure-smtp extension mentioned in the SMTP configuration tutorial. But when i tried to follow the tutorials way it breaks the account login and signup and the server forbids me from access the vingle/flarum-configure-smtp extention with a 403 error

jordanjay29

ExZiByte SMTP configuration is now native, you should remove the extension.

What values do you have for SMTP (minus your password)?

ExZiByte

~~i havent set it up cause every time i try to it breaks the signup/login feature and i delete everything and reinstall it~~

ExZiByte

I have finally found the configuration wizard for flarum and have setup the smtp items as my mail server provider told me to and it still wont sent confirmation emails.
This is the setup i have:

Encryption is either SSL or TLS, not both.

ExZiByte

I have set it to both and neither one worked still

ExZiByte

I have tried setting it to SSL TLS and no encryption and using the server and ports specified by my mail service provider.
Nothing has worked yet
