hello, after a clean install on my system, and no errors on logs, when i try to access the service on the local ip i get redirected to /login/?next=/, in which i am asked to enter login credentials. but i've never set my login credentials, it's a clean install. if i try to enter email and password i would like to use, i just get the error you can see in the screenshot.

i tried to delete everything in the db folder, even tried delete the docker images and redeploy with the empty db folder but i still couldn't get to user registration. am i missing something that needs to be done in the setup?

You have to create a superuser before logging in:

In the same folder where the docker-compose for WYGIWYH is, type:

docker compose exec -it web python manage.py createsuperuser

You will them be prompted to inform an e-mail and password.

This is documented here (the last line)
