Hey, I am currently working with Aquaview project. I am primarily working as a full stack developer. Currently, i have mainly work on enchanment feature to this platform.
This time, I am working on something more visible than my usual task. More than task such as source adding, catalog adding, dropping heap bump, expanding instrument, migrating saved searches, this time it is a bug I am about to fix.
So, thought lets me make a short post for it here!
Summary
Creating an account through the password signup form hangs — the button stays on "Creating account…" and never resolves — but the account is actually created. The user can log in with the same credentials afterward, and the user/account rows exist in the DB.
Steps to reproduce
- Go to
/signup. - Enter a username, email, and password and submit.
- The button stays on "Creating account…" for a long time (no redirect).
- Separately confirm the account already exists: the new user can log in, and the Account/User/UserProfile rows are persisted.
Expected
Signup returns promptly once the account is created and redirects to /explore.
To fix this:
I have the codebase and found out that there was some error on the side of the services folder. In the service folder there are alot of other subfolder that has various small section on it. The one that I am working on is api subfolder. The files are routes for sign up handler and service python file for the verification email send or email send.
It was pretty simple that what it sounded in my head. Which is why it make it easier to write this blog too.
Thank you for reading upto here.
Love.
