Expected behavior
Describe your issue in detail
Observed behavior
What did you see happen? Please include relevant error messages and/or screenshots.
I installed mattermost on a debian 12 server in the traditional way not as docker container.
I did setup a system account which is being used for the installation. This system account does not have a home directory.
I logged in but somehow the password save I did not copy the password correctly so I logged out the admin account.
I cannot reset the password using the mmctl tool because neither the regular user has the reqired config in the home directory nor the systemaccount has a home directory.
Is there a way to unlock the account or do I have to build the system from scratch?
