Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/modoboa/modoboa/issues/3234

Impacted versions

OS Type: Debian
OS Version: 12
Database Type: postgres
Database version: 15.6
Modoboa: 2.2.4
installer used: yes
Webserver: nginx

Steps to reproduce

login into a new-admin
go to /new-admin/parameters/core (go to settings > general)
ctrl+shift+k (open debug console in your browser)
no need to change anything, just click on the green floppy disk icon in bottom right corner and then see response from the server indicating failure

Current behavior

this was installed yesterday, almost everything is in default settings (except maybe for importing users and domains CSVs)
I believe that this might be caused by the users csv import, but i tried to remove those.

Response

XHRPUT
https://mail.<blablabla>/api/v2/parameters/core/
[HTTP/2 400  112ms]

	
password_scheme	[ '"sha512crypt" is not a valid choice.' ]

Expected behavior

status 200

Are you migrating from an old modoboa instance? Is your dovecot server on the same host than the web interface?

Hi, new machine, nothing old apart from comma separated value files with users and domains.

Does the CSV file for users include passwords? Are they plain text or not?
And can you check the list of available password schemes from the web interface?
