NextCloud Login/Registration operation

I have installed my NextCloud on my NethServer now.
The only user I can get to log in is a user called wifiadmin

Everything seems okay, but today we are testing the option to add new users themselves to the NextCloud App.

My NextCloud NethServer is located here, if you would like to see what I am seeing and test it out yourself? please?

https://nextcloud.thenet4you.net

When we click on the REGISTER BUTTON… it takes you to a screen that says
ENTER YOUR EMAIL ADDRESS and it should send you a link to that email address.

I tried edwincarroll@thenet4you.net … this was its error message:
Access forbidden

CSRF check failed

Before that I had to turn off the encryption mode on the apps…
and that error message went away.

I tried another email address from my own domain server
techsupport@thenet4you.net
error message was:
Access forbidden

CSRF check failed

So that was odd to me, so I then tried an outside email address, my google account
thenet4you@gmail.com
I had tried it one time earlier and it sent the message out. but my google email box shows no messages received from my NethServer
This time the message said:
There is already a pending registration with this email, a new verification email has been sent to the address.

I like it that the NextCloud app comes up now in my server’s home page
https://mark.thenet4you.net
That is really cool

And when I log into the account wifiadmin with my password
NextCloud works fine.

I was never able to log into Nextcloud using U=ADMIN P=ADMIN
I saw that somewhere in docs… but that account will not work.

My REAL email server is on https://thenet4you.net … a different server running my hosting business… the email from that server works great… it is not a NethServer, its just a PLESK Centos 7 basic server…

I would really like to get my cloud to work… I am just a little guy here Deep-N-Woods of South Carolina, USA …

I have been checking my email on google every 5 mins… still no email.

What should I do or check or change to allow users to register and log into CLOUD themselves?

Thank you and Merry Christmas 2019 and Happy New 2020 Year!!!

On NethServer the default admin password for Nextcloud module is Nethesis,1234
Change it ASAP if you haven’t done so.

so it is the same username and password on the nextcloud app ???

but my main issue and problem is that I can not get any register users to be able to register.

That username and password did not work.

I do have ONLY ONE NethServer account that can log into the cloud…

Can you try to register and see if you get a email and you can then log into my server?
please and thank you

Tried the other day and although Nextcloud reported the message was send, the mail didn’t go through.

About the admin user, do you have installed any account provider (AD, openLDAP) on NethServer? And if true, is there any other user named admin?
If you need it, on the wiki there is a nextcloud page with indications to reset the admin password.

I tested on a test vm. It works but a registered user is just a nextcloud user and does not sync with a Nethserver account provider.

I tried on your server but I didn’t get an email.
Please check /var/log/maillog for errors.

I have no idea why you linked in my post from January of this year, which has nothing whatsoever to do with your question. But as I told you when you PM’d me about this question, the default Nextcloud installation doesn’t allow user registration. What have you done that you think should allow this? Because odds are that’s where you’ll find the problem.

The self-signed certificate on your server is an obvious problem, but it isn’t what’s stopping this from working.
