Unable to login

[sAlexander]

Hi,

I've just finished installing seafile using this guide:
https://github.com/haiwen/seafile/wiki/Build-and-deploy-seafile-server-from-source

I've since gotten seahub setup using either nginx or ./manage.py runserver. In either case, no matter what I do, I'm getting "Unable to login with provided credentials" when I try to log in with my admin account.

For example, if I first startup seahub with ./manage.py runserver and then:
curl http://localhost:8000/api2/ping/
I get back:
pong
and if I (where username and pwd are exactly equal to what was plugged into seafile-admin reset-admin):
curl -d "username=username&password=pwd" localhost:8000/api2/auth-token/
I get back:
{"non_field_errors": ["Unable to login with provided credentials."]}

Any idea what could be going on? I played around in the ccnet database, and the username appears to be setup properly in there. And if I run ./manage.py createsuperuser with my username it tells me Error: That username is already taken.

Thanks for any help that you can provide.

Okay, and to add a bit to this:

If I open up the Django shell (I'm unfortunately quite unfamiliar with Django, but am trying to find my way around) and run the following commands:

from base.accounts import User u = User('username')
My username is properly returned.

Now if I:
u.check_password('password')
I get back
'User' object has no attribute 'password'.

I found this strange, so I tried:
u.set_password('password') u.save() u.check_password('password')

and I got back True! However, upon reloading (either the web console or the shell), the password would disappear.

Hopefully this additional information will be helpful, but please let me know if I can provide anything else.

Hi,

Can you login through web interface(http://localhost:8000/accounts/login/) using this username and password?

You can also check seahub log files (/tmp/seahub.log, /tmp/seahub_django_request.log)

This may be caused by version mismatch between Seahub and Seafile. Where do you get Seahub?

[freeplant]

We have also updated the address for 1.4.5 version of Seahub and Seafile. You can check https://github.com/haiwen/seafile/wiki/Build-and-deploy-seafile-server-from-source again.

I assume the problem is solved.

[xiez]

Current latest tar ball (seafile-server 1.4.5) is not able to login due to a version mismatch in ccnet and seahub, will be fixed shortly.

[xiez]

Fixed in seafile-server 1.5, see https://github.com/haiwen/seafile/wiki/Build-and-deploy-seafile-server-from-source
