How to get authenticated to Redis Cloud Memcached using Spymemcached?


I am trying to connect to Redis Cloud Memcached but get an error (below). I have checked that the username, password, host, and port are correct in the apps.redislabs.com interface. I able to connect if I disable SASL and connect unauthenticated.

How can I diagnose this?

(Using spymemcached 2.11.6.)

import net.spy.memcached.auth.*;
import net.spy.memcached.*;
...
List<InetSocketAddress> addresses = Collections.singletonList(addr);
AuthDescriptor ad = new AuthDescriptor(new String[] { "CRAM-MD5", "PLAIN" },
        new PlainCallbackHandler(user, password));
MemcachedClient mc = new MemcachedClient(new ConnectionFactoryBuilder()
       .setProtocol(ConnectionFactoryBuilder.Protocol.BINARY)
       .setAuthDescriptor(ad).build(),
AddrUtil.getAddresses(host + ":" + port));

The stacktrace:

Solution

  • Lose the "CRAM-MD5" in your AuthDescriptior declaration.

    The following works in my tests: (user, pass, and url removed)

    AuthDescriptor ad = new AuthDescriptor(new String[] {"PLAIN"}, new PlainCallbackHandler(user, pass));
    MemcachedClient mc = null;
        try {
            mc = new MemcachedClient(
            new ConnectionFactoryBuilder()
                .setProtocol(ConnectionFactoryBuilder.Protocol.BINARY)
                .setAuthDescriptor(ad).build(),
            AddrUtil.getAddresses(host + ":" + port ));
        } catch (IOException e) {
            // handle exception
        }
    mc.set("foo", 0, "bar");
    String value = (String) mc.get("foo");
    System.out.println(value);
