Ive downloaded a project using MongoDB and im having trouble getting set up. From the terminal where ive run mongod I see this error:
2017-05-26T14:51:22.908+0800 I ACCESS [conn21] SCRAM-SHA-1 authentication failed for user on wesbostest from client 127.0.0.1:51653 ; UserNotFound: Could not find user user#wesbostest
From my npm start terminal mongoose logs out this error: Authentication failed.
My environment file has this line:
DATABASE=mongodb://user:pass#localhost:27017/wesbostest
Ive got MongoDB Compass installed. It successfully connects with these settings:
Hostname: localhost
Port: 27017
Authentication: None
SSL: Off
SSH Tunnel: Off
So I think the user:pass part of the environment file is wrong? How can I see what local username and password are and/or set them if no authentication is set up?
I solved this by setting a username and password for MongoDB:
MongoDB what are the default user and password?
Procedure
Start MongoDB without access control.
mongod --port 27017 --dbpath /data/db1
Connect to the instance.
mongo --port 27017
Create the user administrator.
use admin
db.createUser(
{
user: "myUserAdmin",
pwd: "abc123",
roles: [ { role: "userAdminAnyDatabase", db: "admin" } ]
}
)
Re-start the MongoDB instance with access control.
mongod --auth --port 27017 --dbpath /data/db1
Authenticate as the user administrator.
mongo --port 27017 -u "myUserAdmin" -p "abc123" \

I'mnew on mongo and I'm finding some diferencces with SQL database, I'have created a database and I have created an user this way
db.createUser(
{
user: "chatlearning",
pwd: "mypass",
roles: [ { role: "readWrite", db: "chatlearning" }]
}
)
But I can acces to the database with mongodb compass without introducing any login ingo , what do I have to avoid the access to the database to any other user that not intruces the login?
After creating user have you restarted the mongo server in auth mode?
Here the process to start the mongod with access control enabled.
If you start the mongod from the command line, add the --auth command line option:
mongod --auth --port 27017 --dbpath /var/lib/mongodb
If you start the mongod using a configuration file (/etc/mongod.conf), add the security.authorization configuration file setting:
security:
authorization: enabled
I firstly installed MongoDB 3.4.1 today. But when I start it and use MongoDB shell, it gave me these warnings below:

You need to do the following to create a secure database:
Make sure the user starting the process has permissions and that the directories exist (/data/db in this case).
1) Start MongoDB without access control.
mongod --port 27017 --dbpath /data/db
2) Connect to the instance.
mongo --port 27017
3) Create the user administrator (in the admin authentication database).
use admin
db.createUser(
{
user: "myUserAdmin",
pwd: "abc123",
roles: [ { role: "userAdminAnyDatabase", db: "admin" } ]
}
)
4) Re-start the MongoDB instance with access control.
mongod --auth --port 27017 --dbpath /data/db
5) Connect and authenticate as the user administrator.
mongo --port 27017 -u "myUserAdmin" -p "abc123" --authenticationDatabase "admin"
6) Create additional users as needed for your deployment (e.g. in the test authentication database).
use test
db.createUser(
{
user: "myTester",
pwd: "xyz123",
roles: [ { role: "readWrite", db: "test" },
{ role: "read", db: "reporting" } ]
}
)
7) Connect and authenticate as myTester.
mongo --port 27017 -u "myTester" -p "xyz123" --authenticationDatabase "test"
I basically just explained the short version of the official docs here: https://docs.mongodb.com/master/tutorial/enable-authentication/
OMG, what a gas plant, that top answer!
All you need to do is to:
Edit your config, e.g. C:\Program Files\MongoDB\Server\4.4\bin\mongodb.cfg
Turn the security: authorization: to enabled, as illustrated; note that this sub-entry may be missing completely. Just add it then.
Restart your MongoDB Server service from the Windows Services control panel.
Obviously, if, following this, set up a read/readWrite role-based policy, that will make much more sense.
Ref: https://docs.mongodb.com/manual/tutorial/configure-scram-client-authentication/
I've just tested this using phpunit, works as expected.
you can create an admin user or another role.
run it on mongo shell.
db.createUser({user: "username", pwd: "password", roles: ["dbAdmin"]})
if you get SCRAM-SHA-256error you can set the SHA-1 mechanism.
db.createUser({user: "username", pwd: "password", roles: ["dbAdmin"], mechanisms: ["SCRAM-SHA-1"]})
You need to delete your old db folder and recreate new one. It will resolve your issue.
I'm rather new with MongoDB and I'm trying to add a admin account into my MongoDB whithout any users at this point.
Using this command: mongo --port 27017 -u manager -p 123456 --authenticationDatabase admin
I receive this error:
Kind regards.
Let me explain the reason why its not working. mongo db refers to users collection to validate the login user.
By default mongodb doesnt provide any user login like manager, using which your were trying to login
Thus the below command is not working
mongo --port 27017 -u manager -p 123456 --authenticationDatabase admin
To make the below command to work. You need to add user "manager" to mongodb user collection.
To create user run the below command:
db.addUser( { user: "manager",
pwd: "123456",
roles: [ "userAdminAnyDatabase",
"dbAdminAnyDatabase",
"readWriteAnyDatabase"
] } )
Once you have the user created, below command work.
mongo --port 27017 -u manager -p 123456 --authenticationDatabase admin
I did the following
-- `sudo apt-get install mongodb-org`
-- go to `etc/mongod.conf` change bindIp to: `0.0.0.0`
-- sudo mkdir /data/db
-- start without auth to create user
`sudo mongod --port 27017 --dbpath /data/db`
-- open shell with : mongo --port 27017
```
> use admin
> db.createUser( { user: "useradmin", pwd: "mypassword", roles: [ { role: "root", db: "admin" } ] } )
```
-- Restart with auth required(ctrl+c the above mongod process):
`sudo mongod --auth --port 27017 --dbpath /data/db'
-- To open shell(ctrl+c above mongo shell):
`mongo --port 27017 -u useradmin -p mypassword --authenticationDatabase admin`
my mongoengine_settings.py
```PYTHON
from mongoengine import connect
DATABASE = 'tracking'
USERNAME = 'useradmin'
PASSWORD = 'mypassword'
HOST = 'mongodb://localhost/tracking'
PORT = 27017
connect(DATABASE,
username=USERNAME,
password=PASSWORD,
host=HOST,
port=PORT
)
```
now when i try to bulk insert some data using mongoengine that works fine if i don't have --auth enabled, otherwise it throws the following error:
OperationFailure(u'command SON([(\'createIndexes\', u\'order\'), (\'indexes\', [{\'unique\': True, \'background\': False, \'sparse\': False, \'key\': SON([(\'order_id\', 1)]), \'name\': u\'order_id_1\'}])]) on namespace tracking.$cmd failed: not authorized on tracking to execute command { createIndexes: "order", indexes: [ { unique: true, background: false, sparse: false, key: { order_id: 1 }, name: "order_id_1" } ] }',)
what am i doing wrong?
MongoDB users are created in a specific database rather than at the instance level. Once created users can be granted different roles for different databases. The database a user is created in is called their authentication database
Because usernames are not unique (only the combination of username and authentication database is) you can create two users with the same name in different databases with different roles and passwords. This also means that when connecting you need to specify the authentication database as well as the username and password.
This is why after creating the useradmin user in the admin database you needed to run this command:
mongo --port 27017 -u useradmin -p mypassword --authenticationDatabase admin
to connect the MongoDB shell to the default database test.
If you don't specify the authentication database explicitly then MongoDB assumes the database you are connecting to is also the authentication database. So connecting to the admin database like this would have worked:
mongo --port 27017 -u useradmin -p mypassword admin
and these three commands are effectively the same and all will return an "Authentication failed" error :
mongo --port 27017 -u useradmin -p mypassword
mongo --port 27017 -u useradmin -p my password test
mongo --port 27017 -u useradmin -p my password test --authenticationDatabase test
To connect from Python, if you use MongoClient and pass it a complete MongoDB URI, the connection string can include optional parameters. One of the options is authSource (the the database name associated with the user’s credentials) which is obviously what you need: connection options.
Your URI will look something like this:
MdbURI = "mongodb://useradmin:mypassword#localhost:27017/tracking?authSource=admin"
client = MongoClient(MdbURI)
Here's a means of connecting and authenticating with pymongo:
from pymongo import MongoClient
# MongoDB connection info
hostname = '10.20.30.40'
port = 27017
username = 'adminUserName'
password = 'secret'
databaseName = 'someDB'
# connect with authentication
client = MongoClient(hostname, port)
db = client[databaseName]
db.authenticate(username, password)
I use the latest mongo, and try to set the SuperUserAdmin as described in the Mongo Doc.
1) Start ./mongod --dbpath ../data without auth
2) Run ./mongo
3) [mongo shell]: use admin
4) [mongo shell]: db.addUser( { user: "admin",
pwd: "abcde1234",
roles: [ "userAdminAnyDatabase" ] } )
5) [mongo shell]: db.shutdownServer()
then i restart mongod with auth:
6) ./mongod --auth --dbpath ../data
7) Run mongo (as localhost) again: ./mongo -u admin -p abcde1234
Then i get this error:
Javascript executiion failed: Error: 18 {code:18, ok:0.0, errmsg: 'auth fails'} at src/mongo/shell/db.js:L228
I tried different username &password, same thing..
what am i missing? I'm running on my Mac.
anyone has any idea?
Role userAdminAnyDatabase allows for users administration only. This is why if new account has only this role, it can be authenticated only to database "admin", i.e. mongo -u admin -p abcde1234 localhost/admin should work.
You probably want to add role dbAdminAnyDatabase as well.
try
mongo admin -u admin -p abcde1234
otherwise you will connect to test database and admin can't.
