Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/fosrl/pangolin/issues/1412
I have installed the new version of Pangolin and tried to add a two-factor authentication with QR.
Unfortunately, when adding it to the Ente Auth application, the generated key is incorrect, preventing me from adding TOPT.

I just tested on the latest version and I think it is working? This can
break if the time of your server is off. Could you make sure the time is
right?
I am not super familiar with Ente, but sometimes the string it gives you
is not parsed correctly from pangolin. For example:
otpauth://totp/Pangolin:admin%40fosrl.io?secret=QHNSPVT4LR3JFT62XZWCP7H5GE4ZY2OH&issuer=Pangolin
The actual OTP secret here is QHNSPVT4LR3JFT62XZWCP7H5GE4ZY2OH.
Does that help?
@vk2r commented on GitHub (Sep 5, 2025):
I'm sorry. There was no way.
I tried Microsoft Authenticator and it didn't work either. I tried entering it manually and the same message keeps appearing.
This is my referral URL:
otpauth://totp/Pangolin:admin%40vk-studios.net?secret=COU7NDUXYB3SW2FHTXRPZBFNM222CHBI&issuer=Pangolin
This is the message I get :

It could be due to the time zone mismatch. My VPS is located in Germany and I am in Chile.
How can I change the time zone?
@v1rusnl commented on GitHub (Sep 8, 2025):
sudo dpkg-reconfigure tzdataIf your VPS is Ubuntu or Debian.
Also you can try to pass TZ variable to the Pangolin container using environment variable depending on where you live.
