It looks like I have some documentation to update.
The format for users in mongo is like
{
"_id" : ObjectId("63a35103811aa405ae1e73a2"),
"email" : "user@camicroscope.org",
"userType" : "Admin",
"userFilter" : "['**']"
}
You can add a user directly to mongo, or alternatively temporary disable security and go to
If you're getting an issue from google itself, please let me know.
Thank you for your fast response. Unfortunately, I do not know how to access mongo (within the docker container) and how to add then a user. And the other user adding version from the documentation (with the adduser.json) does not work since there is no such file, and I do not know where to place it.
We had to remove the "easy" method of user addition due to some kubernetes/openshift constraints about our indexer container.
Anyway, to get a mongo shell, run docker exec -it ca-mongo mongo
and use camic
to get into the right database.
I added user according to the query given above but I am not able to login. Could you please suggest any solution to this? @birm
I neglected to mention the easiest way to add a user; either run develop.yml or disable security (temporarily or otherwise; see the environment variable in develop.yml under caracal) then simply add the user using the user sign up page (/apps/signup/signup.html)
The email should match the email from a google id token.
Thank you very much for your suggestions. The version with the development.yml file works. But allowing everybody to add a user etc. does not seems fine to me. Therefore, a more secure solution seems to be mandatory.
However, the other mentioned methods do not work for me:
Maybe the question at psankhe28: How did you add a user?

However, the other mentioned methods do not work for me: #1 I can access the mongo database, but I have no clue how to add a user there. With db.addUser and your suggestions above, it does not work. #2 I do not know how to disable the security temporarily. I am sorry.

I tried by adding the user directly in mongo database. But its not working. Have you found any solution to this? @catweis
Hi! I am Tingyuan (Leon). Thank you for previous discussion, it inspired me a lot.
By running develop.yml
, I successfully sign up a temporary account.
I also tried the other two potential methods, however, as @catweis said, they do not work.
The followings are my tries on these two methods:
Log:
develop.yml
under Caracal
, but I did found there were config related with security check in .env
file that was copied and renamed from .env.example
.
I tried modifying both DISABLE_SEC
and ALLOW_PUBLIC
to value of true
, and made sure configs in .env
were run by re-executing setup_script.sh
under Caracal
, but it still did not worked.
In short, for now, it seems like running develop.yml
is the only way to access the system.
I know it is very likely that there is something wrong with my operations, so I will be extremely happy if anyone could point me in the right direction! Thank you so much!
After installation (current Distro, installation with docker compose), I need to log in. The proposed way is using the google-account. However, this does not work. There is the "error 400". Based on the google page, there is a problem with the authentication solution used on the webpage?
Looking for other ways of adding users, I found in the documentation a solution with an add_user-file; which does not exist? Do I have to write it? And if so, which fields are required?
