Can't follow blog on Federation after reinstalling

[ghost]

Describe the bug

After reinstalling my WF blog, I am unable to follow it via Mastodon. The profile does appear, although it appears as the old profile before I reinstalled, and only says 'Follow Requested' when trying to follow. Blog is lexserv.xyz, and the profile is located at @alex@lexserv.xyz.

Did try to change the address of the blog from lexserv.xyz to lexserv.xyz/, but it then didn't appear.

Steps to reproduce (if necessary)

Steps to reproduce the behavior:
Find blog on Mastodon, click 'Follow'

Expected behavior

What should've happened?
I should be able to follow the blog.

Application configuration

• Single mode or Multi-user mode?
  Single
• Database? [mysql/sqlite]
  SQLite
• Open registration? [yes/no]
  No
• Federation enabled? [yes/no]
  Yes

Version or last commit:
0.10.0

To help debug, can you do the following?

• run the server with the --debug flag
• from Mastodon, unfollow and follow the blog
• include the full server logs around those requests here

Here's the full text from starting the server, cancelling my follow request then attempting to follow again.

These two bottom lines seem to indicate some sort of authorization issue. What is needing authorised, and how do I go about allowing it?

[thebaer]

The 401 is from Mastodon -- it isn't accepting the request because the keypair for your @alex@lexserv.xyz account doesn't match the one that fosstodon.org first encountered.

If you still have data from the first time you installed WF, I can help you migrate your keys to your current install. Otherwise the way to solve this would be to have your Mastodon instance admin delete the @alex@lexserv.xyz account, and then searching for the current account and following it should work.

I'll close this since it isn't a bug, but feel free to continue the conversation.

Thanks for that @thebaer ! No data saved from the old installation, so have contacted the admins of Fosstodon to delete the account.
