I installed mongodb and enabled auth. and his working find. I can connect it from a remote laptop using the robomongo app:
Host: SERVER_IP PORT: 27017 DATEBASE: prod-db USERNAME: user_name PASS: user_password Auth Mechanism: MONGODB-CR
and we can connect locally to the server shell using:
$ mongo prod-db -u user_name -p user_password
Everything works fine, but when we try to use the pymongo api. Authentication failed. below is the python code:
from pymongo import MongoClient client = MongoClient() client.prod_db.authenticate('user_name', 'user_password', mechanism='MONGODB-CR') db = client.prod_db result = db.users.find() for document in result: print(document)
Tools used:
python 2.7 pymongo versiob 3.3.1 MongoDB shell version: 2.6.10 $ mongod --version db version v2.6.10 2016-10-31T16:34:59.868+0000 git version: nogitversion 2016-10-31T16:34:59.868+0000 OpenSSL version: OpenSSL 1.0.2g 1 Mar 2016

Solution: the problem is with the database name, the following code works fine:
from pymongo import MongoClient client = MongoClient('mongodb://user_name: user_password@localhost :27017/prod-db') db = client['prod-db'] result = db.users.find() for document in result: print document
