I would advise addressing the second issue first since we’ve seen that help in many cases.

It is a long fix and some users were able to cut it short by just changing the password of the user directly, but that might not always work.

Please follow steps from this post:

Once done, test again and if the issue persist please provide the main.log again.

Kind regards!
