Unauthorized writing in MongoDB

Question

I am trying to write mongo through mongoengine.

In mine /etc/mongod.confI have auth=true. My user I'm contacting

{
        "user" : "dbexample",
        "roles" : [
                {
                        "role" : "dbOwner",
                        "db" : "dbexample"
                }
        ]
}

However i still get

>>> john = Employee(name="John Doe", age=25)
>>> john.save()
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<console>", line 1, in <module>
  File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/mongoengine/document.py", line 394, in save
    raise OperationError(message % unicode(err))
OperationError: Could not save document (command SON([('insert', u'employee'), ('ordered', True), ('documents', [SON([('name', u'John Doe'), ('age', 25), ('_id', ObjectId('56bc94d1f1d55600445bd085'))])]), ('writeConcern', {'w': 1})]) on namespace dbexample.$cmd failed: not authorized on dbexample to execute command { insert: "employee", ordered: true, documents: [ { name: "John Doe", age: 25, _id: ObjectId('56bc94d1f1d55600445bd085') } ], writeConcern: { w: 1 } })

EDIT: Here is the Django Mongo configuration,

_MONGODB_USER = 'dbexample'
_MONGODB_PASSWD = '####'
_MONGODB_HOST = '172.17.0.1'
_MONGODB_NAME = 'dbexample'
_MONGODB_DATABASE_HOST = 'mongodb://%s/%s' % (_MONGODB_HOST, _MONGODB_NAME)

Note. If I turn off auth, I can write to a DB file.

Answer 1

As stated here https://jira.mongodb.org/browse/PYTHON-855 the problem may be in the connection string, try changing:

_MONGODB_USER = 'dbexample'
_MONGODB_PASSWD = '####'
_MONGODB_HOST = '172.17.0.1'
_MONGODB_NAME = 'dbexample'
_MONGODB_DATABASE_HOST = 'mongodb://%s:%s@%s/%s' % (
           _MONGODB_USER, _MONGODB_PASSWD, _MONGODB_HOST, _MONGODB_NAME)

Answer 2

mongodb , . https://docs.mongodb.org/manual/reference/connection-string/

_MONGODB_DATABASE_HOST = 'mongodb://%s/%s' % (_MONGODB_HOST, _MONGODB_NAME)

_MONGODB_DATABASE_HOST = 'mongodb://user:password@%s/%s' % (_MONGODB_HOST, _MONGODB_NAME)
