[solved] New Users Cant Register For Self Hosted

Hey all, I've been using Appwrite for a few weeks now and I am looking to get a few friends added to my project. When they go to register for my self hosted instance it throws an error about max users for a project (see attached). I looked through the console and I could only find the Users Limit at the auth level (second screenshot) which was set to unlimited. Any insight here?

For that you'll need to edit your .env file and set _APP_CONSOLE_WHITELIST_ROOT to disabled

_APP_CONSOLE_WHITELIST_ROOT=disabled

Then run

docker compose down && docker compose up -d

To find out more about environment variables check this https://appwrite.io/docs/environment-variables#general

oh shoot, i totally missed that env variable. thanks!

follow up question, that seems to stop that maximum users error but it throws another error saying that user already exists (they don't)

yea.. ignore that, it seems to have cached the email from an old invite that didnt work
