Not sure if I should ask this here, or in the jerboa community. I’m new to Lemmy, so bear with me.
I’ve double & triple checked that I’m entering the correct username and password.
The first field on the login form is for the instance, so I put in lemmy.world, and then my username and password, and it says “Incorrect Login”.
If I intentially put something for a non-existent instance, it says that it’s not an instance, so it’s recognizing lemmy.world as the instance.
Not sure what else to try. Thanks for any suggestions.
Mine said “incorrect login” until my application was accepted. Could this be your issue as well?
Maybe? I’m not sure what “application” you mean. I’m posting here, so my account request on
lemmy.worldwas accepted. Not sure what other applications I would need.
Where do I log in in jerboa? Im clicking the Person icon but it says log in first
Upper left corner menu. Click “anonymous” and then “add account”
Do you have a long password? I had the same issue with a 64 character password. Apparently the web interface implicitly truncates long passwords to 60 characters, but Jerboa doesn’t (Jerboa issue #425). Once I changed mine to a shorter password, it worked fine.
This fixed the issue for me. Thanks
Yep, 66 characters. Tried changing it to a (much) shorter one, but still having the same issue. Reading in other communities, it seems that lots of people have problems with Jerbora, and lots of other people don’t. (sigh).
Update: Seems that the password change didn’t take. But deleting the last 6 characters of the password when logging into Jerbora seems to have worked.
Seems like there might be a similar issue with the old password length in Lemmy when changing the password. Ugh.
