Following this tutorial to build a simple REST API on Node.js with Express, attempting to retrieve all docs from my MongoDB gave these errors:
2016-05-19T20:10:47.311-0700 [initandlisten] connection accepted from 127.0.0.1:52053 #4 (2 connections now open)
2016-05-19T20:10:47.325-0700 [conn4] authenticate db: nodetest { authenticate: 1, user: "", nonce: "xxx", key: "xxx" }
2016-05-19T20:10:47.336-0700 [conn4] Failed to authenticate @nodetest with mechanism MONGODB-CR: ProtocolError field missing/wrong type in received authenticate commandSome quick Googling turned up the same error in this post that just suggested authentication was failing because no user was passed. So created a new used with:
db.createUser({user : 'nodetest', pwd: 'passwordhere', roles: ['readWrite', 'nodetest']})… and problem solved.
