2FA suddenly incorrect

[castenigma]

Hi,
Suddenly and after a restart my node mentions the 2FA is incorrect. I have tried several methods to solve this issue, re start, re-install umbrel on my raspberry but nothing helps.
Anyone has a different solution?
Also a question, how to restlet with seed phrase? Flashing the ssd in the raspberry pie does not give me this option.

Hi @castenigma,

This should help

To disable Two-Factor Authentication (2FA) if you have lost access to your 2FA app but still remember your Umbrel password, follow these steps:

1. Connect to your Umbrel device by following the instructions in How to SSH into Umbrel on a Raspberry Pi or by accessing a terminal on your Linux machine.
2. Run the following command. If you are on a Linux machine, you may need to replace ~ with the path to your installation directory, as described in Troubleshooting on Linux:json_file="$HOME/umbrel/db/user.json" && contents="$(jq 'del(.otpUri)' ${json_file})" && echo "${contents}" | sudo tee ${json_file}

This will disable 2FA.

hi!

i am facing the same issue.

after reflashing the umbrel os, MFA stopped working (not recognizing the authenticator code).

i use windows 10.

I tried to connect using PowerShell (ssh).

the command you gave above didn’t work. it says, “jq: error: Could not open file /home/umbrel/umbrel/db/user.json: No such file or directory.”

please help!!!
