After installing Guix system in non-Latin language, it is not possible to log in. When installing the system, the Guix system user login password was a "Persian" password; Once installed, the login page with my password will not open. (This is not a password error)
To install on another system, I set an English password when installing, it worked properly and I logged in.

Does the installer use the same layout as the installed system?
That's usually what leads to these problems. I've had the same issue a
long time ago on Arch with Hungarian passwords.

Personally, I avoid passwords that can't be typed with ASCII, because I
might have to log in from someone else's machine and ASCII is the
lowest common denominator, for better or worse.

From the beginning of the operating system installation process, I chose Persian; Just to write the host name, I changed the language to English using Alt + Shift.

The problem was solved!
This time, during the installation process, I put the language, keyboard and all the names in English, and I was able to log in with my user (not the root) and update it. I hope this problem is solved soon. Yes, as I thought, this is related to issues.guix.gnu.org/43985 http://issues.guix.gnu.org/43985.
