Describe the bug When I attempt to register, it gives me err: Failed to create account

  1. Load the browser and ip addres

  4. See error

Expected behavior it should let me create the account

Screenshots

Additional context do have to say I adjusted the prod yml file and .env file but I don't think the sign up page is even coming from my server itself

same issue how to resolve it

just FYI, I was able to resolve this issue by starting a new VM, with 12GB of RAM.. cause if we look at the docker compose is already asking for 8GB , which is pretty drastic coming to think of it 🤔 anyways with that amount of ram then i was able to sucessfully login to another ERROR lol, (still not sure if it was the RAM or something with Docker, or even in the code, as this time I left it mint condition except for the OLLMAURL pointing to my ollama server).

Here's the next error: "Application error: a client-side exception has occurred (see the browser console for more information)."

  • yet checked all three containers and they all look Healthy.
  • I did it in incognito mode
  • I used another browser
  • tested on https just for kicks same outcome.

Anyway, I shut down the VM for now until someone can fix the issue or they update the repos?!

When i tried to use docker (not localhost) IP using plain http this happens. If you see the debug console, there's issue with crypto.randomUUID() that is not a function. If you try to call it in an insecure context (plain http:// on a remote host), the API (crypto.randomUUID()) will be undefined.

Tunelling out to https using cloudflare, so far no issue. Image

Just dont forget to set the environments in docker compose files and everything will be smooth.

I configured the https setup successfully via a Cloudflare tunnel after multiple attempts. To avoid triggering the original "failed to create account" issue, I reused an existing password created under the http version (as creating a new one would revert to the same error). I’ve now reached the next stage.

Current Issue: However, when attempting to select any option from the provided blocks (e.g., Agetn, API, Condition...t, etc.), I encounter a "Deprecation" error regardless of the choice. This is unexpected and blocks further progress.

You need to change the env SOCKET_SERVER_URL in docker compose file. I can see in the pictures that you've still use localhost:3002.

I'm glad to see that others above are attempting to resolve the current issue -PR.

Despite a massive amount of attempts to correct the .env file, I encountered repeated loop errors related to Auth and menu functionality issues even under tunnel usage.

I came across launching Chrome in this specific manner: chrome_proxy.exe --unsafely-treat-insecure-origin-as-secure=http://SERVER-IP:3000 - seems to have yielded success for navigating menus. Nonetheless, I've found that only half of the available options function properly when utilizing SSO services. Another bug remains unresolved; however, this will be a separate issue for further investigation...."

PROS: The GUI looks amazing! Better than other workflow competitors, this is hands down. 💯 CONS: there's a learning curve just as the others, and it seems that options are very limited, and it looks like this one will cost me because this is more pointing to AI so...., also I couldn't tell if it has an option to run py or terminal scripts. bummer!

In my case, I somehow am able to create an account, but then I can't login because my email is not verified, lol. But I'm obviously not receiving any email to verify my address because there is no email provider configured 😑 I don't even know how to setup SSO properly, since even if I create GOOGLE_CLIENT_ID (& secret), I don't know the vars for the callback URL for example.

There is 0 documentation for self-hosting this...

Also, if anyone else can confirm... Which vars are for inter-container communication, and which ones are for public-facing information? For example... I guess BETTER_AUTH_URL and NEXT_PUBLIC_APP_URL the public-facing URL? But then SOCKET_SERVER_URL should be internal (just for inter-docker communication), right? Or is that variable used on the browser somewhere (in which case it needs to be public-facing as well?). I guess NEXT_PUBLIC_SOCKET_URL is the public socket URL that's passed to the front-end?

I do have a same issued here's... How to solve?

ataraxianusa avatar Sep 23 '25 02:09 ataraxianusa

I'm still unsure about the exact issue, but I found a workaround: navigating to the browser's binary folder, such as Chrome's, open Terminal, and run the command:

chrome_proxy.exe --unsafely-treat-insecure-origin-as-secure=http://SERVER-IP:3000 

chage IP and port*

I wouldn't recommend using this in a production environment, but it helped me get started. I try it out. At this point, I've decided to put this on hold. Perhaps in the future this approach will be more stable—until then, I'll continue using other services

Any updates on this issue?

I've also tried with different docker-compose recipes on Portainer, but I'm still getting the "Failed to create account" error.

orkutmuratyilmaz avatar Oct 01 '25 06:10 orkutmuratyilmaz

Same issue......its so easy to self host n8n , i assumed would have beeen the same :)

Also have the same bug.

I found a solution. Apparently ~/.simstudio saves it's data here. rm -rf ~/.simstudio to have a fresh start.
