Target model users has no primary key attribute

English Forum

Dear all -

Happy new year!

I installed the current version via yarn like described in the documentation.
Unfortunately, when I yarn start the app, I get the following issue:

Target model users has no primary key attribute

The database seems to be correct, in the table users, there is a field “id” set as Primary key.

Any idea?

Could it be related to collation?
