FileCloud - Login loads indefinitely

Issue

When logging into the admin console for the first time, the login loads indefinitely.

Why?

This TONIDOCLOUD_SECURE_COOKIE setting is turned on by default without ever being configured for HTTPS. You might’ve seen this error on your Extended Checks page and brushed it off as nothing like I did.

Fix

Edit the cloudconfig.php file located at /var/www/html/config/.

sudo vi /var/www/html/config/cloudconfig.php

Once in the file, press / to search, type SECURE_COOKIE to find the line, then press the Enter key. Press i to edit and scroll over to change the 1 to a 0. Press the Esc key and type :wq to write to the file. Reload the admin console and try to login again.
