Hi all,
I was able to solve the problem with account creation, following Steven Brandt 's suggestion to check my ORCID settings.
In case anyone else encounters this issue: - CILogon reads information from your ORCID profile that is public. - Therefore, if you have set your email's visibility settings in ORCID in anything else but "Everyone", then CILogon will fail to read your email during account creation. - Setting my email visibility settings to "Everyone" in ORCID allowed me to solve this issue.
best, Panagiotis

Dear ET users,
I am a new user trying to familiarize myself with the ET.
I tried following the instructions in the "Tutorial for new users" but I encountered a problem with account creation (in order to use the CactusTutorial.ipynb notebook online to get a feel for the basics).
I went to the web server, https://etk.cct.lsu.edu/, clicked on the "Sign in with CILogon" button and then I entered my ORCID credentials.
Afterwards I got (as expected) the "403: Forbidden" page, then clicked on "Request account" and answered the two questions.
However when I clicked submit, I got a page saying "Please provide a valid email address." and there is no way I can proceed further.
I noticed that in the "email" field, instead of an email address, my ORCID is automatically entered and I suppose that is the problem (see attached screenshots).
Do you have any suggestions as to how I can proceed and create my account?
Best regards, Panagiotis Iosif
