New EmonCMS Install giving issues

Emoncms Installation

Hi,

I have installed EmonCMS on a new SD Card using the SD Images. Specifically I installed emonSD-01Feb24.img. The install went well and seemed to be working.

The issues are when I try to use the admin panel. I could create a master account but then I can’t create new Users. When I try to, I get a bit of a red error message with no text. No User is created.

When I click on the “view” part of the admin panel. I get:

Warning: Undefined variable $user in /var/www/emoncms/Modules/admin/admin_controller.php on line 518

Fatal error: Uncaught Error: Call to a member function get() on null in /var/www/emoncms/Modules/admin/admin_controller.php:518 Stack trace: #0 /var/www/emoncms/core.php(81): admin_controller() #1 /var/www/emoncms/index.php(257): controller() #2 {main} thrown in /var/www/emoncms/Modules/admin/admin_controller.php on line 518

I have tried updates and nothing seems to help. Thoughts?

By default, you can have only one user of your local emonCMS.

To allow multiple users, add the following to the interface section of settings.ini
enable_multi_user = true
enable_rememberme = true
enable_password_reset = true
