Generator-jhipster: Authentication with default admin and user on dev env fails

[delor]

After creating example app (all defaults) I can't login with user:user or admin:admin.

[Hartimer]

This happened to me when I first tried jhipster. I was running "grunt server" but not spring boot. Maybe the same thing happened to you.

[jdubois]

OK, if you didn't start the Java server, that's normal.

[delor]

I'm invoking mvn spring-boot:run so what else might be wrong?

I'm struggling with the very same issue. After creating example app (all defaults), i run mvn spring-boot:run but the default users couldn't authenticate. This suspicious log message can be seen:
[WARN] org.springframework.security.crypto.bcrypt.BCryptPasswordEncoder - Encoded password does not look like BCrypt

Any help would be appreciated.
Thank you.

are you on mongo db?

[bigyoo]

Yes, I chose mongo but I'm a mongo (and jhipster) newbie, so there's a good chance that I screwed up something.
Here's the stuff: https://github.com/bigyoo/recommend

[pvlastaridis]

Go and replace the file in resources/config/mongeez with this https://github.com/jhipster/generator-jhipster/blob/master/app/templates/src/main/resources/config/mongeez/users.xml it has the new bcrypt passwords

[bigyoo]

It works. Thank you!

[aminx4]

i have the same problem

[bigyoo]

Do you use mongodb? Have you replaced the resources/config/mongeez/users.xml with the new one reffered by pvlastaridis?

[jdubois]

@bigyoo is there an error in the users.xml file, or is it just people using the old file, before we used blowfish?

[bigyoo]

When I started to use jHipster the users.xml contained an old password. This caused my problem. But I think it's ok now, so probably aminx4 is using the old file.

[aminx4]

for me it's ok. i think it was caused by mongodb server !
