authenticate fails

[ernestoongaro]

There's a bug if you try to authenticate against a server:
"The method authenticate(String, char[]) in the type DB is not applicable for the argument (String, String)"

According to this javadoc authenticate wants a charArray not string
http://api.mongodb.org/java/2.6.3/com/mongodb/DB.html#DB(com.mongodb.Mongo, java.lang.String)

In the file tMongoDBConnection_begin.javajet - change the last part to

db_<%=cid%>.authenticate(<%=dbuser%>, <%=dbpass%>.toCharArray());

Thanks for that!

We had the same issue and your solution solved it :-)

However, it seems that Talend does not authenticate anyway. We get an error on every collection saying that we are not authorized. While if we use a different tool (e.g. Robomongo) with the same credentials, everything works fine...

Did you succesfully connect to a collection, in the end?

@willemmulder - haha, casually reply to a 5 year old post 👍 Unfortunately I haven't used this project in some time

Too bad :-)

Thanks anyway!
