 In general enabling LubeLogger authentication is a bit of a mess. First of all, it starts with authentication disabled. As stated [[https://docs.lubelogger.com/Installation/Authentication|here]] you need to go to settings and enable authentication in order to create a //root// user and setup a password. Also note that to add users you **must** setup an email provider and have LubeLogger send out a token to the new user email address. Very annoying. In general enabling LubeLogger authentication is a bit of a mess. First of all, it starts with authentication disabled.
