Sorry, how do I get to settings? Remember, I have not been able to confirm my account, so there is currently no admin user.
cheers,

The first user that is registered doesn't need to confirm the email adress and is an admin-account by default. |
Yes, but I still cannot see the “settings” link to which you refer. My point is that I was not registered because of the failure of the confirmation email, so I am not a user, let alone the first one. I remain a “guest”, or just “anonymous”.

G'day Ralph,
OK, due to some other problems (not related to this one), I reinstalled the otter wiki ("anotter wiki? :-), and I now get the following response when I tried the "send test mail" option.

In trying to make progress on this, I have got things into a total mess. Is there anyway one can uninstall the package, hopefully to start again?
cheers,

Sure, using which method did you install it? |
the docker cli method

With the docker cli there is not much to uninstall. Under the assumption that you ran
all files created by the wiki can be found in the local If you have not iused a local directory as volume, please check the docker docs on how to remove the volume. For your next try let me suggest to use docker compose the recommended method for running An Otter Wiki. ✌️ |
I'm sorry, but I am well out of my depth here. I restarted using the docker compose, and I did get an Otter wiki running. But then I ran into the nginx timeout that I showed you previously. Something to do with the mail settings, I think?
So I tried re-installing it yet again. Now, the command "docker compose up -d" says "Cannot connect to the Docker daemon at unix:///var/run/docker.sock. Is the docker daemon running?"
But I don't know how to start a docker daemon. The docker documents are arcane, to say the least, and I have not been able to understand how to start the docker.
What am I missing?
Sorry to be such a pain, but the Otter Wiki does seem to be what we want, and I am trying to persist with it.
cheers,

`docker run --name otterwiki \

all files created by the wiki can be found in the local `app-data`
directory. Just rename it if you have created something, or remove it
if not.
If you have not iused a local directory as volume, please check the
docker docs <https://docs.docker.com/engine/storage/volumes/> on how to
remove the volume.
For your next try let me suggest to use docker compose

Hey @ajhurst, digging into the details of your environment is a bit out of scope. Please understand that I can only provide limited support. Lets start with a few questions:
|
I have just installed Otter Wiki, and I have had trouble confirming my email address. Although the wiki says that a confirmation email has been sent, it never arrives.
The message that gets recorded by the log is:
"ERROR in helper: send_async_email(): Exception please run connect() first"
Can you please help?
