IBR (in-band-registration) is disabled by default in all XMPP servers that I know off to prevent people to accidentally turn their unmaintained servers into spam origins. Just create accounts via the CLI or set up a proper invite system (on Prosody or Snikket).

You know what? prosodyctl register USER HOST [PASSWORD] this form just don't work for me, but when I tried prosodyctl register USER HOST and then enter password - IT WORKS! But I still enabled registration, but it doesn't work. allow_registration = true and module "register" enabled by default

This section of the tutorial you followed shows how you enable registration.

This section shows how you add a user.

The official Prosody documentation for adding users and opening registration can be found here.
