Login not working when load balancing over multiple Kallithea Instances

[Søren Løvborg]

In this context, the name "app_instance_uuid" might be a bit confusing
(the name is traditional).

In Kallithea, app_instance_uuid is a per-application ("per-cluster",
if you will) secret, and should be the same across instances, but
unique to a given Kallithea site/installation (and kept secret).

It's used as a secret key for protecting the integrity of password
reset tokens (among other things?). In a freshly generated config
file, it's identical to the value of "beaker.session.secret", which is
similarly used to protect the integrity of cookies.
