Two Factor Authentication Failed (N8N)

Hello! I have a major problem guys !

I use the N8N service through Railway, when I created my account I activated two-factor authentication with the Google Authenticator application. When I activated it there was no problem.

Now, after I re-deployed from Railway, when I log in again it asks me for my credentials, including the code generated by the authentication app, and it simply tells me that the code is wrong, same situation with the recovery codes, it simply doesn't work either.

I got response from N8N, with this suggestion:

Disable MFA for a user#

If a user loses their recovery codes you can disable MFA for a user with this command. The user will then be able to log back in to set up MFA again.

n8n mfa:disable --email=johndoe@example.com

But, I've no idea how to execute this on Railway in order to delete the MFA.

Looking forward to your kind assistant.

I don't think MFA is the actual issue here, check your deploy logs -

error:1C800064:Provider routines::bad decrypt
Error: error:1C800064:Provider routines::bad decrypt

You would want to get back in contact with N8N and ask them how to fix this issue as we cannot provide assistance with 3rd party software.
