Need help with the following error…!

#selfhost #forem #help #admin

Hi team!

I was not able to find any answers to this so I thought I might try my luck here.

I created Forem using selfhost guide which is now done.
However, when I try to create the admin user for the first time, it just redirects me to the same page.

I got a log file of what happen when I try to sign up but wasn’t too sure how to resolve this.

Would anyone be able to help me out please?
