[bug] invalid account error solved for local auth
Author: jhmonroeCreated Jul 23, 2026Updated Aug 8, 2026
- set up local option for auth
- leave the local attribute mapping field down below set with its autopopulated
{{ .password }} - create a new user
- try logging in and get the invalid account error here
Solution: that local attribute mapping field needs to be the main password you set up for filestash. This is not made clear by a tooltip or description here which would save a lot of people heartache and hours of troubleshooting and claude credits! ;-)
