Usergrid: Unable to Login to local Usergrid

Question

I setup Usergrid on my local machine, however even after modifying the 'usergrid-default.properties' file and adding:

# SysAdmin login
usergrid.sysadmin.login.name=superuser      
usergrid.sysadmin.login.email=
usergrid.sysadmin.login.password=superpassword
usergrid.sysadmin.login.allowed=false

I am not able to login to the local instance. Even with the test/test password it is not allowing me in. IS there a trick I am missing?

Answer 1

You may need to change the name of your properties file.

Try changing

usergrid-custom.properties to usergrid-deployment.properties

then restart tomcat.

Answer 2

Place "usergrid-custom.properties" in Tomcat's lib/ directory. Ensure that there are no spaces before or after the credentials in this file. Remove the ROOT/ directory in webapps/ and restart Tomcat.

Answer 3

usergrid.sysadmin.login.allowed = true
