RocketChat Skip Install Registration Wizard Fix

Q:

• RocketChat Skip Install Registration Wizard Fix

A:

For someone using snap, it means creating a file /var/snap/rocketchat-server/common/override-setup-wizard.env (the name of the file itself could be anything as long as it has an .env extension) and setting its content to OVERWRITE_SETTING_Show_Setup_Wizard=completed

Then, restarting the server by systemctl restart snap.rocketchat-server.rocketchat-server.service

If it does not work yet, then reboot.
