2 options: 1- in your site\_configuration, in LMS Django Admin, check that you have **“lms\_root\_url”:“[http://www.domain.com](http://www.domain.com)”** , and edit the file **“lms/templates/emails/activation\_email.txt”** , change “ **lms\_url** ” by “ **lms\_root\_url** ” 2- just go and edit the file **“lms/templates/emails/activation\_email.txt”** , change “ **lms\_url** ” by “ **LMS\_ROOT\_URL** ” Restart all services, and try again.
