I can't believe that there is no simple example for this. I keep reading different versions everywhere.
mongo --port 27017 -u "admin" -p "mypass" --authenticationDatabase "mydb"
use mydb
db.createUser(
{
user: "normal",
pwd: "anotherpass",
roles: [ { role: "readWriteAnyDatabase", db: "mydb" } ]
}
)
I get:
Error: couldn't add user: No role named readWriteAnyDatabase
From the website:
Changed in version 3.4: Prior to 3.4, readWriteAnyDatabase includes
local and config databases. To provide readWrite privileges on the
local database, create a user in the admin database with readWrite
role in the local database.
If you want the desired output, I believe you just have to go to the admin database use admin and create an user with the following command:
db.createUser(
{
user: "normal",
pwd: "anotherpass",
roles: [ { role: "readWrite", db: "mydb" } ]
}
)

I have 22 databases on a single MongoDB instance. I came across root role of MongoDB authentication. I want to create a single user which can do anything to existing database as well as create new database and manage them fully. I ran the following command but it doesn't allow me to access any database except admin.
use admin
db.createUser(
{
user: "iamroot",
pwd: "<pa$$w0rd>",
roles: [ "root" ]
})
It only stores root role for admin database only. How can I apply root role to all existing database as well as on new database if added? Is there only one way to supply all the DB name in roles array like this to achieve what I want?
use admin
db.createUser(
{
user: "iamroot",
pwd: "<pa$$w0rd>",
roles: [
{ role: "root", db: "db_1" },
{ role: "root", db: "db_2" },
{ role: "root", db: "db_n" },
]
})
You would need to assign root for admin db explicitly I guess.
For me the following worked (am on version: 3.4.23):
use admin
db.createUser(
{
user: "iamroot",
pwd: "<pa$$w0rd>",
roles: [
{ role: "root", db: "admin" }
]
})
I'm using zend 3 framework and mongodb. Connected to mongodb database using mongodb/mongodb library.
How I can add validation in zend and mongodb so that only authenticated users can perform CRUD operation in mongodb using zend rest apis?
From mongo shell I've added authentication to db using below queries which works fine.
use admin;
db.createUser(
{
user: "admin",
pwd: "password",
roles: [ { role: "root", db: "admin" } ]
}
);
mongo --port 27017 -u "admin" -p "password" --authenticationDatabase "admin"
use test;
db.createUser(
{
user: "testUser",
pwd: "password",
roles: [ "readWrite", "dbAdmin" ]
}
);
db.auth("testUser", "password");
Right now In Zend model I'm using following code which works fine without db authentication.
$mongoClient = new \MongoDB\Client();
$collection = $mongoClient->selectDatabase($dbName)->selectCollection($collectionName);
$cursor = $collection->findOne(['_id' => $_id]);
Now how I can pass user credentials to \MongoDB\Client() to authenticate user before executing above query?
You may initialize the client with credentials as follows:
$mongoClient = new \MongoDB\Client('mongodb://username:password#host1:port');
My mongo shell is giving me this error when I am using show dbs command.
not authorized on admin to execute command
I have tried to create a user using
db.createUser(
{
user: "siteUserAdmin",
pwd: "password",
roles: [ { role: "userAdminAnyDatabase", db: "admin" } ]
}
)
as on https://docs.mongodb.com/v2.6/tutorial/add-user-administrator/
But it still gives me the same error:
Could not add user: not authorized on admin to execute command.
I am using Ubuntu 16.04 and mongoDB version is 3.4.9
I think you can use the role as root for Ubuntu. Try the below query.
use admin
db.createUser(
{
user: "admin",
pwd: "password",
roles: [ { role: "root", db: "admin" } ]
}
);
exit;
You can give read write permission to user as well
use admin
db.grantRolesToUser("admin",["readWrite"])
EDIT
Since the above didn't work try to start the instance with auth as below
Stop the mongod instance
Start the instance with $ mongod --auth
Now start mongo shell and create user
use admin
db.createUser(
{
user: "admin",
pwd: "password",
roles: [ { role: "root", db: "admin" } ]
}
);
exit;
Now give permission
db.auth("admin", "password")
db.grantRolesToUser("password", [ { role: "readWrite", db: "admin" } ])
Now check show users
I'm trying to create an extended role that allows
- read/write on any database
- allow collMod on any database
- allow createCollection on any database
- readonly on admin database
I tried the following
use admin
db.runCommand({ createRole: "_ReadWriteAnyDatabase",
privileges: [
{ resource: { db: "", collection: "" }, actions: [ "collMod", "createCollection" ] }
],
roles: [
"readWriteAnyDatabase",
{ role: "read", db : "admin" }
]
})
then I created the user on the admin database, because I wasn't able to create the user on an alternative database
but i found out that I can create and delete collections on the admin database
mongo admin -u user1 -p user1
db.createCollection('mycollection')
{ ok : 1 }
db.mycollection.drop()
{ ok : 1 }
If you give user "readWriteAnyDatabase" role, you cannot exclude admin DB. So, solution is give use "readWrite" role to all other databases, but then that users cannot create new databases.
You can create script (loop; forEach()) what lists all databases (excluding admin, local, config) and grant "readWrite" right to user.
I have create a user in Mongo 3.0.4 and enable authentication, I can login in Mac but not in Ubuntu 14.04
This is how I followed process to enable authentication
use admin
db.createUser(
{
user: "mongoUser",
pwd: "User123##!",
roles: [
{ role: "read", db: "trackuser" },
{ role: "readWrite", db: "trackuser" },
{ role: "dbAdmin", db: "trackuser" },
{ role: "dbOwner", db: "trackuser" }
]
}
)
auth=true in /etc/mongod.conf
$ mongo -u mongoUser -p User123##! --authenticationDatabase trackuser
MongoDB shell version: 3.0.4
connecting to: 127.0.0.1:27017/test
2015-07-16T14:44:54.741+0200 E QUERY Error: 18 Authentication failed.

at (auth):6:8
at (auth):7:2 at src/mongo/shell/db.js:1266
exception: login failed
What to do in this case?? Same version Working in Mac but not in Ubuntu??
You can try adding new parameter for DB name like this
-d trackuser
right now i guess you are using
--authenticationDatabase trackuser
