Dear All

I am trying to install cryosparc from the first time have managed to successfully install it, however i am having trouble to access the web app as i cant create the initial cryosparc user. I tried several suggestions from this forum and I am pretty much stuck here. I get the below error and would be great to get some help to sort this issue.

Hello @aravie,

I would investigate this:

Some ideas:

  • You are trying to create the user “aravindan” from the wrong account (try with the same account you used to install cryosparc)
  • You have no rights to access to the database where the server runs.

Is “aravindan” the user you used to install cryosparc? did yo try

cryosparcm createuser --email your-email@something --password PASSWORD --name "Firstname Lastname"

Best,

Juan

Hello @jucastil

thanks for your suggestion. I have infact used the same username in both and have tried your suggestion too, but that comes back with “Improper usage” error message. I think this is not liked by the program without --username input.

Sorry that was the old command… the last one (v.3.2.0) looks like this:
cryosparcm createuser --email "email" --password "password" --username "username" --firstname "Firstname" --lastname "Lastname"
But I guess you know that, right? :slightly_smiling_face:

Hi @aravie, were you able to resolve this or are you still encountering issues?

Hi @sdawood yes i did eventually solve the issue, apologies for not updating.

I wasnt able to fix the problem any other way so, in the end i ended up reinstalling the OS and somehow it worked first time after that. Also thanks to @jucastil for the suggestions.
