I'm trying to use loopback angular SDK to login but instead I'm getting back a 401 unauthorized response.
User.login({ rememberMe: true }, {email: $scope.user.email, password: $scope.user.password})
.$promise
.then(function() {
var next = $location.nextAfterLogin || '/';
$location.nextAfterLogin = null;
$location.path(next);
})
.catch(function(x) {
$scope.authError = 'Wrong Credentials';
});
};
Also i can see the user with the given credentials in the datasource that I've defined for the User model.
So basically, I have a boot script that creates a default user
User.create([{
username: 'admin',
email: '[email protected]',
password: 'admin'
}], on_usersCreated);
And I also have created a custom User model that extends the built-in User model.
Why am I getting a 401 unauthorized response when trying to login? I have even tried to login via the explorer, but with no success.
Update:
I debugged the build-in User model and the login method; and it seems that it cannot find the user with the given email. I can see it though in the mongodb database.
