The MinIO Console currently does not warn the user if the MinIO server is not reachable. MinIO Console will just say "Invalid Login" when the MINIO_SERVER_URL is not reachable which is misleading in the sense that will make think most people that the username/password/access key is incorrect so I think it should be mentioned in the documentation that Invalid Login could be just due to connectivity between console and server.

Deprecated Settings

Table of Contents
This page covers deprecated settings that control core behavior of the MinIO process.
Settings on this page may be removed at any time. Users should migrate to the recommended replacement at the earliest opportunity.
Environment Variables
The following environment variables are deprecated. They are listed here for historical reference only.
MINIO_SECRET_KEY
RELEASE.2021-04-22T15-44-28Z
The secret key for the root <minio-users-root>
user.
This environment variable is deprecated in favor of the
MINIO_ROOT_PASSWORD
environment variable.
Warning
If MINIO_SECRET_KEY
is unset, minio
defaults to
minioadmin
.
NEVER use the default credentials in production
environments. MinIO strongly recommends specifying a unique, long, and
random MINIO_ACCESS_KEY
value for all environments.
MINIO_ACCESS_KEY
RELEASE.2021-04-22T15-44-28Z
The access key for the root <minio-users-root>
user.
This environment variable is deprecated in favor of the
MINIO_ROOT_USER
environment variable.
Warning
If MINIO_ACCESS_KEY
is unset, minio
defaults to
minioadmin
.
NEVER use the default credentials in production
environments. MinIO strongly recommends specifying a unique, long, and
random MINIO_ACCESS_KEY
value for all environments.
MINIO_ACCESS_KEY_OLD
RELEASE.2021-04-22T15-44-28Z
To perform root credential rotation, modify the MINIO_ROOT_USER
and MINIO_ROOT_PASSWORD
environment variables.
MINIO_SECRET_KEY_OLD
RELEASE.2021-04-22T15-44-28Z
To perform root credential rotation, modify the MINIO_ROOT_USER
and MINIO_ROOT_PASSWORD
environment variables.
MINIO_SERVER_URL
RELEASE.2024-05-10T01-41-38Z
The fully qualified domain name (FQDN) the MinIO Console uses for connecting to the MinIO Server.
For the Console to function correctly, the MinIO server URL must be the FQDN of the host, resolveable, and reachable.
If the specified value does not resolve to the MinIO server, logins via the MinIO Console fail and return a network error after a wait period. Older versions of the Console may return a generic 'Invalid Login' error instead. Unset the value or address the FQDN resolution issue to allow Console logins to proceed. This setting may be required if:
- The MinIO Server uses a TLS certificate that does not include the host local IP(s) in the certificate Subject Alternative Name (SAN).
or
- The Console must use a specific hostname to connect or reference the MinIO Server, such as due to a reverse proxy or similar configuration.
