### Description

I’m trying to register on [https://cloud.rocket.chat/](https://cloud.rocket.chat/). I got an email with the link to verify my email but once I open the website, the site is loading with the message _Verifying your email…_  
The console shows: _Failed to load resource: the server responded with a status of 500 ()_

### Server Setup Information

I tried to open the URL in the latest Chrome and Mozilla Browser, both show the same result.

### Any additional Information

I’m currently in Turkey and using NordVPN connecting to a obfuscated server in Germany. No idea if this might cause the issue.

It doesn’t work for me either, all I see after clicking the link is this:

```auto
{"status":500,"error":"internal_server_error","errorId":""}

Same issue.

Is there a work around, I have an install that is blocked until this is resolved.

In USA no VPN.

Found a work around.

After you get the email to verify, click the link and you should see the Verifying Email…

- Go to [https://cloud.rocket.chat/](https://cloud.rocket.chat/) and do Forgot Password for the userId you were trying to verify.
- After receiving the forgot password email, follow the steps to change password (you dont have to change it, you can reuse the same one).
- Then go back to [https://cloud.rocket.chat/](https://cloud.rocket.chat/) and login

You will now be able to access your account and register your workspace.
