Error message

loginResp.ErrorMsg

What it means

The Tuya cloud login (PasswordLoginResponse) returned Success=false; go2rtc surfaces the vendor's ErrorMsg string verbatim as the error. The message content comes from the Tuya OpenAPI, not go2rtc itself.

Solutions

1. Verify Tuya username and password are correct by logging into the Smart Life / Tuya app
2. Check the configured server host/region matches the account's data center (e.g. openapi.tuyaXX.com)
3. Update stored credentials after any password change
4. Inspect the ErrorMsg text for account-state issues (locked, verification required) and resolve in the Tuya app

login, err := tuya.Login(client, cfg)
if err != nil {
	log.Printf("tuya login failed: %v", err) // body is vendor ErrorMsg
	// check credentials/region before retrying
}

When it happens

Trigger: Calling tuya login (via the apiTuya endpoint) with wrong username/password, an account locked or needing verification, or against a server/region endpoint that rejects the credentials.

Common situations: Tuya smart-home credentials changed or revoked; using the wrong data-center endpoint for the account; account requires 2FA/captcha; expired app account.
