Installation Notes
First login
Section titled “First login”On first start, SolidPing creates an administrator account admin@solidping.io with the
password solidpass. That password is public, so it only works once: the first login
lands on a “set a new password” screen, and nothing else is reachable until it is changed.
Log in right after the install and set your own password. To use another administrator
email, set SP_ADMIN_EMAIL before the first start. It is only read on an empty database.
Database
Section titled “Database”The chart runs SolidPing on PostgreSQL, through a CloudNativePG cluster it creates
(cnpg.main). The CloudNativePG operator must be installed. The /data volume only
keeps uploaded files.
JWT secret
Section titled “JWT secret”Nothing to set. When SP_AUTH_JWT_SECRET is empty, SolidPing generates a random secret on
first start and stores it in the database, so sessions survive a restart.
Public URL
Section titled “Public URL”Set SP_BASE_URL to the address users reach SolidPing on (for example
https://solidping.example.com) when it sits behind an ingress. It is used in links sent
by email and notifications.
