It is normal that the link to /list/ directly on the site does not work.
For that to work you need to set up a reverse proxy that forwards /list/ on
the pgweb port to whatever port you run pgarchives on. But that's not
needed to test and use pgarchives.

The majority of pgarchives doesn't need or use any authentication at all,
but I assume you're planning to do something that needs it. It's hard to
figure out from your screenshot what is actually failing though. Which port
is pgarchives on? And what url is actrually triggering the initial
redirect? Everything in your screenshots seems to be from pgweb and nothing
from pgarchives?
