How can I fix that? My system is debian12 on a cloud VPS, and frequent updates are enabled.
Somehow ttrss is configured with a wrong database password. Could you try running this command through SSH?
sudo apt-get purge tt-rss
And then try installing it again.
I ran into the same issue as @fn7yk33zq and @jvalleroy’s solution of purging tt-rss and reinstalling worked for me. Thank you!
Fix for this issue is will be available soon.
