Hello,

After enabling the two factor authentication, when i tryy to login i get the message “Whoops, looks like something went wrong.” and i can’t login to my (self-hosted) account.

Any indication why?
How can i disable it until the problem is solved ?

Thank you

Please check the logs in storage/logs/laravel-error.log for more details.

You can disable it by clearing users.google_2fa_secret in the database

If you upgraded the code from GitHub did you run composer install?
