Unable to login/sync with my funkwhale server

Issue description:

Hello, i’m unable to sync my songs from funkwhale to symfonium on my phone. I searched on the forums and reddit and did not find a solution yet.

When adding a new media provider, I choose Open subsonic and enter my server’s url and my username and password. When i try to confirm, this message shows up “authentication error. wrong login or password”, except it’s the right login and the right password that i’m using to connect to funkwhale on my desktop.

When I use an api key, symfonium adds succesfully the media provider, but is still unable to sync it (last sync shows “unsuccessful, check logs if frequent”). I skimmed through the logs and found some errors, but nothing that could help me resolve this issue…

Additional information:

 
I have admin rights on the funkwhale server so i might be able to resolve the issue if I know what to look for
 

Reproduction steps:

 
fresh self hosted funkwhale server
try to connect with correct username and password
 

Media provider:

Subsonic

Funkwhale does not support apiKeys, the fact that it allows the connection is a Funkwhale issue as they probably allow the ping call without auth.

For the auth error, AFAIR you need to create a specific subsonic password in Funwhale, it’s not your default funkwhale password.

thank you so much for your quick answer, i feel like an idiot but i am able to login to my server now !
