Hi thanks for submitting! I think something happened though - this server supports both English and Espanol and I noticed that if you don’t select either when making a post, only the admin user can seem to find it. You may want to re-post and select english, espanol, or both.

Done! Thanks for the reminder, I’m deep in trying to get users onboarded and such and probably would’ve forgot!

Final-ish comment on this:

Here are the valid workarounds to this issue:

1. Turn off email validation and enable captchas (if doing open registration like I am)
2. Turn on the registration from, and disable captchas.
3. Fix your SMTP settings
4. For anyone impacted by a failed registration, have them use a “plus” email address like ( [email protected] ) after you have it fixed.

Double-Update: Suddenly it’s working again? I think using Incognito sessions to test might be causing the issue… This time I also used a “plus” email for more uniqueness (while using the same inbox).

EDIT: NOPE! Nvm, it was because email validation was disabled that things were working. As soon as I enabled it again, I got a different error. Which has me suspect that the bug I was experiencing earlier is a result of the following condition.

1. The user creation transaction doesn’t back out on SMTP failure, thereby preventing the creation of the account due to the aforementioned constraint issue.

Ah, sorry, yes, context:

The bug I think I’m impacted by - https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/2955

The error I’m getting:

panicked at ‘couldnt create local user: DatabaseError(UniqueViolation, “duplicate key value violates unique constraint "local_user_email_key"”)’, crates/db_schema/src/impls/local_user.rs:157:8

The user_email value is indeed different, ( I have a handful that I’m using to test) and this occurs no matter what I try. Even disabling email verification didn’t seem to help.

I’m using the official docker instructions, and everything else appears to function perfectly - and my initially created user has no problem interacting with with the app. Heck, I’m using my instance to communicate with y’all.
