Call ConfigBasic.html under YunoHost

I can’t access the admin page on YunoHost. I keep getting stuck at the dialog box where I’m supposed to enter my username and password. When I click “Cancel,” I get a message saying that the page ConfigBasic.html is unavailable.

Welcome to the YaCy community, @karsbehr !

It sounds like ConfigBasic.html is probably there, but YaCy is rejecting the administrator login before allowing access to it.

The YaCy administrator username and password is normally: Please change once you are running.

admin yacy

If you have SSH access to the YunoHost server, try resetting the YaCy administrator password from the YaCy installation directory. Normally YaCy provides:

bin/passwd.sh newpassword

The exact YaCy directory may be different in the YunoHost package.

There has also previously been a YunoHost-specific issue with YaCy admin authentication, so this may be related to the package/reverse-proxy setup rather than anything you are doing wrong.

Could you also tell us which version of YaCy and YunoHost you are running? That should help narrow it down.

I use Version: 1.924~ynh4

Don’t change the port number…

Try this in a terminal.

sudo -u yacy YACY_DATA_PATH=/home/yunohost.app/yacy/DATA /var/www/yacy/bin/passwd.sh yourpasswordhere

Sets your yacy password.
