Login for user having only database specific roles

[creharmony]

Hi

context

I've a test environment with a test mongo database and a test user account:

• a dedicated mongo user account
• this user is associated to a custom role targeting only test database:

(example on mongodb.com > manage access view > custom role)

NB/ in following example, I replaced real data with "blah blah".

uri login test case

When using "mongo uri login page" with following entry

 mongodb+srv://testuser:password@blah.blah.mongodb.net/test-database?retryWrites=true&w=majority

Then I got the following Screen:

detailed fields login test case

If I retry using "detailed fields login ui", then I'm able to get in and I see

• my database name in upper-left corner
• but on db name click, I'got a 500 with the following alert message :

Error: No suitable servers found (`serverSelectionTryOnce` set): [Failed to resolve 'blah.blah.mongodb.net']

NB: I got no more logs on docker side:

[Sun Dec  5 14:51:34 2021] 172.21.0.1:53274 Accepted
[Sun Dec  5 14:51:34 2021] 172.21.0.1:53274 [500]: POST /listCollections
[Sun Dec  5 14:51:34 2021] 172.21.0.1:53274 Closing

mongo shell test

Please note that if I'm trying to connect from command line in order to list collections, I've no issue

mongo.exe mongodb+srv://testuser:password@blah.blah.mongodb.net/test-database?retryWrites=true\&w=majority
PRIMARY> show collections
.coll
collB

expected evolution

I expect to use MongoDB-PHP-UI even if my security context doesn't allow me to list all databases (end so on.. manage index/users..)

If I've no access to some feature, I may have a feedback to understand that point
If I've only database read/and/or/write access, then I must be able to use MongoDB-PHP-GUI related feature (find/count..)

Hi, Thanks for this detailed explanation. I planned to rework error handling. I will probably handle this issue at the same time...
