Vaultwarden Support String

I dont have any support string as I did not set up an admin page yet due to above problem

Vaultwarden Build Version

v1.33.0

Deployment method

Official Container Image

Custom deployment method

original way how to install (base: sqlite) and with another database (pgsql)

Reverse Proxy

caddy 2.9.1

Host/Server Operating System

Linux

Operating System Version

Ubuntu 22.04 Jammy

Clients

Web Vault, Browser Extension, iOS, Desktop

Client Version

Brave 1.74.38 (PC), Bitwarden Extension, Bitwarden mobile client

Steps To Reproduce

start vaultwarden (docker base image)
go to the web vault
create new user and log in (you should enable sight on your password and copy it for best results)
log into the bitwarden extension or mobile client (self hosted)
you will see error

Expected Result

You actually should successfully log in everywhere

Actual Result

You can log in on the web where you created your user, you are not able to log in anywhere else, due to it saying that your username or password is incorrect

Additional Context

I have lastly tried to move vaultwardens backend to pgsql, which is basically where everything started... It worked fine before that...
However I reinstalled everything, new docker container, new files, however this did not fix anything.
