MongoDB 3.0.1 problems with auth - RoboMongo

Question

I have install MongoDB 3.0.1 in a server (Ubuntu14.04). I need to enable remote authentication for my MongoDB, so that it can only be seen by registered user. Once installed Mongo, I have run these commands:

> use admin
switched to db products
> db.createUser({user: "userAdmin", pwd: "admin1234", roles: [ { role: "userAdminAnyDatabase", db: "admin" } ]})

This is my /etc/mongod.conf":

dbpath = /var/lib/mongodb
logpath = /var/log/mongodb/mongod.log
logappend = true
port = 27017
bind_ip = 127.0.0.1,SERVER_IP
auth = true

If I try to connect with RoboMongo, I get this message

YES - Connected to SERVER_IP
NO - Authorization failed

If I try to access it from my browser (http://SERVER_IP:3000/products) I get this message:

null

If I change the configuration file this "auth = false" from the browser I can see this (which is correct)

But I can not login, someone can help me?

Answer 1

Via Robomongo.org homepage:

Note: We are working on an update with MongoDB 3.0 compatibility for the upcoming Robomongo 0.9.x release series.

Robomongo is currently on version 0.8.5 which only supports MongoDB 2.2

Answer 2

mongo 2.6 uses MONGODB-CR auth protocol and 3.0 uses MONGODB-SHA-1 by default. the work around would be to create your databes with a server running auth and version 2.6 then upgrade to 3.0 because both authMechanism can co-exist. Any user created with MONGODB-CR will continue to use that authentication as long as you do not run a authSchemaUpgrdae after you have upgraded to 3.0.

PS. robomongo and older versions of drivers uses MONGODB-CR.
