Research direction

No files or tests are named. Reproduce the first-start admin setup by entering a name, email, and password, then pressing Save; trace the transition from setup to the login screen and the source of the “Invalid email or password” response. Done means a fresh instance completes setup without locking the user out and the created credentials can log in.

Description

bug

At first startup, I enter my information:

Name, email and password.

And press Save, but immediately get the error Invalid email or password, but am sent to the login screen, and then I can't proceed.
