Hello,
I need some help.
I’ve been trying to self-host Bitwarden on a Rocky Linux VM for over 3 days now.
I have a problem checking my email in a user account and I don’t receive the secure link to connect to the administrator account.
I get this error message on the bitwarden web page when I try to check my email:
Here is my configuration file /opt/bitwarden/bwdata/env/global.override.env :

I also get this error when I look at the logs with this command: docker logs -f bitwarden-api

I followed this tutorial to use gmail as an smtp server : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_PhecuWHe4M
I’ve tested sending mail with GMass’ online SMTP Test Tool and I’m receiving the mails perfectly using the same parameters.
Are there any other variables to configure when using Gmail as SMTP server?
I look forward to hearing from you.
