I am running ERPNext 15 in a docker container and have discovered a strange pattern with the admininstrator account. Maybe it’s the expected behavior but seems a little odd. I have reproduced this a couple times now. I am not using the official Docker config but rather a custom one I created but doubt that should matter. Steps to reproduce:
- Spin up a new docker container
- Login as user Administrator and the password specified during the build
- Follow the on screen instructions to setup admin account. Enter the email and a different, secure password.
- Setup the company and go into ERPNext
- Everything seems fine. If you look at the user list, it shows the account I just created. Can do administrative stuff, etc.
- Log out
- Log back in entering administrator as the username and the password specified during build (same as step 2). Not the password set in step 3.
- Go to the user list. Two additional users have now been added. One named Administrator and one named Guest.
Shouldn’t the account created in step 3 be the true administrator account? Or is this expected behavior as in I create an account in step 3, but then I need to log out and go back in as Administrator and change that password too? Something seems really off to me here.
