I have a new self hosted server up and running. I’ve imported everything and I see all the users came over, but none of them can login now and they can’t seem to reset their passwords either.

Any thoughts?

Thx in advance, Jim

2 years have passed since your question but I’ve just encountered exactly the problem.

In my case I made sure config.production.json included correct SMTP Mailgun server details.

In my case I copied settings with SMTP mode from past deployment. But i noticed for some reason

```auto
"transport": "Direct",

```

was instead of:

```auto
"transport": "SMTP",

```

So i fixed to SMTP and everything works, migrated users can login now
