I'm using https://hub.docker.com/_/mongo mongo image in my local docker environment, but I'm getting Authentication failed error. In docker-compose I add it like:
my-mongo:
image: mongo
restart: always
container_name: my-mongo
environment:
MONGO_INITDB_ROOT_USERNAME: mongo
MONGO_INITDB_ROOT_PASSWORD: asdfasdf
networks:
- mynet
I also tried to run mongo CLI from inside the container but still getting the same error:
root@76e6db78228b:/# mongo

Also, I'm trying to create a separate user:
> use admin
switched to db admin
db.auth("mongo", "asdfasdf")
1
> db.createUser({
user: "user",
pwd: "asdfasdf",
roles: [ {role: "readWrite", db: "translations" } ]
})
Successfully added user: {
"user" : "user",
"roles" : [
{
"role" : "readWrite",
"db" : "translations"
}
]
}
> use translations
switched to db translations
> db.auth("user", "asdfasdf")
Error: Authentication failed.

Enable MongoDB's free cloud-based monitoring service, which will then receive and display
metrics about your deployment (disk utilization, CPU, operation statistics, etc).
The monitoring data will be available on a MongoDB website with a unique URL accessible to you
and anyone you share the URL with. MongoDB may use this information to make product
improvements and to suggest MongoDB products and deployment options to you.
To enable free monitoring, run the following command: db.enableFreeMonitoring()
To permanently disable this reminder, run the following command: db.disableFreeMonitoring()

as stated in the Docs
These variables, used in conjunction, create a new user and set that user's password. This user is created in the admin authentication database and given the role of root, which is a "superuser" role.
so you need to add --authenticationDatabase admin to your command since the mongod will be started with mongod --auth
example:
mongo -u mongo -p asdfasdf --authenticationDatabase admin
