Failed to connect MongoDB 3.X with MongoVUE

I am running MongoDB on windows8.1 and created users for admin database. For convenience, I use mongoVUE to check data. But after turning on the "auth" function. I cannot logged in.

Actually, I can use the username and password to authenticate with mongo shell. Further more, I can also use them to authenticate by python codes. They failed to work only when I use mongoVUE or Robomongo.

When I clicked "test" button on mongoVUE, it returned a message "Connection was refused". And the windows command shell presents the following words:

2015-07-03T19:52:34.843+0800 I NETWORK [initandlisten] connection accepted from 127.0.0.1:24163 #242 (4 connections now open)

2015-07-03T19:52:34.845+0800 I ACCESS [conn242] authenticate db: admin { auth enticate: 1, user: "uvpaiad", nonce: "xxx", key: "xxx" }

2015-07-03T19:52:34.846+0800 I ACCESS [conn242] Failed to authenticate uvpaiad @admin with mechanism MONGODB-CR: AuthenticationFailed MONGODB-CR credentials mi ssing in the user document

2015-07-03T19:52:34.847+0800 I NETWORK [conn242] end connection 127.0.0.1:24163 (3 connections now open)

Does anyone know what the matter is?

possible duplicate of mongodb version 3.0.0 client robomongo mongovue – Blakes Seven
robomongo and mongovue cannot support mangodb 3.0 now? – Tylor_E
"Authentication" is the key. The Mechanism changed in MongoDB 3.x series, so any client that does not support SCRAM-SHA-1 cannot connect (using authentication). The recommendation is to "update drivers" but the products mentioned have current build problems preventing this change. – Blakes Seven

This is because of the changed authentication mechanism in MongoDB latest version. In Mongo 3.X, auth mechanism is changed to SCRAM- Salted challenge response authentication mechanism.

In order to avoid this one needs to get into system users collection and create the new users documents and delete the old ones.
