Thanks, I'll take a look.

I just tested this a ton, and its working correctly. Do you already have an admin in the DB?

if !no_admins && Settings::get().captcha.enabled {

It would only throw an error if you already have an admin created somehow in the DB.

if this site already have admin, why this site redirects from / to /setup ? 2021年1月27日(水) 3:33 Dessalines <notifications@github.com>:

I'm guessing because you somehow set up an admin user, but never set up the site:

    if (!this.state.siteRes.site_view) {
      this.context.router.history.push('/setup');
    }

Clear out the admin user, or start from a fresh volumes folder / DB.

I haven't manually connected to the DB. The admin user must have been created in the setup section of lemmy.hjson.

following steps works for me. thanks!

• docker-compose down
• sudo, then rm -fr volumes/postgres/*
• comment out setup section in lemmy.hjson
• docker-compose up -d

[dessalines]

Ya you got it, if the volumes folder gets not you sometimes have to clear it out if things got set up wrong.
