Installed Passbolt, didn't get recovery email when login first time

Installation Issues
1

I did a fresh install of the latest version of Passbolt. During the installation, I configured SMTP server and tested it. I receive the test email.

After the installation, I launched Chrome browser and proceeded to login for the first time. I was presented with Login page (/auth/login?redirect=%2F&locale=en-UK). I proceeded to enter my admin email address and clicked Next button. However I didn’t not receive any emails.

I tried email tester (/usr/share/php/passbolt/bin/cake passbolt send_test_email) and I receive the email.

I tried to look for this page, but appears I must be able to login before I can change any email settings.

Hello,

There is no email check for the first user. That’s why you didn’t get the email validation email.
If you’re not receiving email for example when you do a recover or something else it may be some other isssues (like cron job is not present). See. Passbolt Help | Why are my emails not being sent?

Hi Remy,

Apologies. If I don’t get an email for the first user, then how do I login?
I have checked and the cron job is running.

@albert1 Hi, what guide were you using to install? The official guides on help.passbolt.com include a link generated on the backend that gives you access on front end for the admin user.
