OrientDB 1.6.1 - Create new Database with Studio fails!

[Cod3r]

When i started Studio (my server is started) and i try to add a new Database, it dont work. The Browser (Chrome) still asking for Authentication username and password. I already try the user found into orientdb-server-config.xml, i add more users, change password restarted the server, but i cant create a new Database from Studio... whats wrong?

Well!! This occurs only when i use as User another name as "root". When i use root as User, then i can create a new database.

Hi,

I am new to OrientDB, just downloaded it yesterday. Looks promising option for DB layer, but I am not able to create the new DB.

I am facing the same issue that is explained on this thread, except that even root is not working for me. When I try creating new DB through OrientDB Studio, it keeps on asking me for authentication. I tried all combinations of existing users, but none worked.

I have below two users in my orientdb-server-config.xml

        <user resources="*" password="881912E114F3FAC64DB70A328073E06FD1D563A5AB67E31829D130CB68860AF4" name="root"/>

<user resources="*" password="testing" name="testuser"/>

I am running it on localhost (Windows 8). Any idea, how to solve this ?

Regards,

Gaurav

Got it resolved, don't know the exact reason for it.

Steps to resolve:

1. Reinstall orientDB

2. At this point there will be no user defined in orientdb-server-config.xml. Add at least one user as below, with your own password

<user resources="*" password="whatever your want" name="root"/>

3. Save the file and start the server

4. Go to OrientDB Studio. It should ask for authentication.

5. Enter the username and password that you configured in step 2 above

6. One should be able to add new DB.

In earlier case (before re-install), i directly started OriendDB server, without setting user, so something got messed up. I think it should be clearly mention in Read Me or somewhere about above steps else its tough for new OrientDB guy to get resolve it.

Best Regards,

Gaurav

I was also facing the same issue. I just changed the password in orientdb-server-config.xml and did ./orientdb.sh start. It worked

Thanks,
