Hi @Petrogrado_1917, thanks for the details. I went back through this thread and your earlier one ([Error sending email](https://community.nocodb.com/t/2299)), and I think a few separate things are getting mixed together. Let me separate them so we can focus on the one that matters:

1. **The Docker log lines.** These come from different actions: removing a user (`DELETE .../users/...`), sending an invite (`POST .../invitations`) and a forgot-password request (`POST /auth/password/forgot`). The license and Redis cache lines are warnings and non-blocking messages. They don’t stop invites or password resets from working.
2. **Inviting members.** You’ve confirmed this works, so we can set it aside.
3. **The invited user can’t set their password.** This is new in this thread now. It’s almost certainly the same issue as your earlier thread: the invite and reset emails are **not being sent** (`Error sending email`), so the user never gets the link to set a password.

So I’d suggest we treat this as a single email-delivery problem. Based on the compose file you shared earlier, please check these:

- **`NC_SMTP_PORT: 587` with `NC_SMTP_SECURE: true`** : For Gmail, port 587 needs `NC_SMTP_SECURE: false` (it upgrades to TLS on its own). If you’d rather keep `NC_SMTP_SECURE: true`, use port `465`. This mismatch is a very common cause of this exact error.
- **`NC_SMTP_FROM`** : This wasn’t in your config. Please add it, set to your Gmail address.
- **`NC_SMTP_PASSWORD`** : Gmail requires an **App Password** here (2-Step Verification must be on). Your normal account password won’t work.
- **`NC_SITE_URL`** : Invitation and reset emails build their links from this. Please confirm it’s the public URL your users open, including `https://`, e.g. `https://nocodb.yourdomain.com`, and not `localhost` or an internal IP.

Reference: [Environment Variables](https://nocodb.com/docs/self-hosting/environment-variables)

After changing these, restart the container and trigger a password reset once. Then figure from there.
