Unable to Create New Credentials

Questions
1

Hello,

Describe the problem/error/question

When I try to create new credentials in n8n, the fields in the form do not display correctly, making it impossible to fill them. Existing credentials still work fine.

What is the error message (if any)?

The browser console shows multiple JavaScript errors:

GET https://n8n.<-my instance->.net/rest/external-secrets/secrets 404 (Not Found)

What’s strange is that n8n considers my license as Sustainable Use License + n8n Enterprise License, even though I’m using the Community Edition.

Thanks for your help!

Hey @KillianSantos hope all is good. Welcome back.

Would you like to expand on how exactly they do not display correctly?

Hi @jabbson,

Thank you for your response.

To be more precise, when I create a new credential, for example OpenAI, the window to enter the API key opens, but not all the fields are displayed.

For the credentials I have already created, they work, but I cannot see the fields and can no longer edit them.

Here is a screenshot: Screenshot by Lightshot

Thank you for your help.

I see, please look in your list of environment variables and check if you have N8N_DEFAULT_LOCALE set. If you do, please try to remove it and restart the container.

Yes, I have an environment variable N8N_DEFAULT_LOCALE set to FR. I’ll test it. Thanks.

Thank you so much @jabbson. It worked by removing the environment variable. You’re a boss! Have a great day.
