Describe the bug

When I try to log in with the default admin user at http://localhost:3000/account/login, I get the following error

TypeError [ERR_INVALID_ARG_TYPE]: The "salt" argument must be of type string or an instance of ArrayBuffer, Buffer, TypedArray, or DataView. Received undefined

To Reproduce

  1. Start a standard vulcan app
  2. Go to the login page
  3. Log in with the default admin credentials from .env.development

Expected behavior I expected to be logged in

Are you sure your accountManagement file is up to date? This happens if "user.salt" is not defined, what do you have in the db for this user?
