- I am currently setting up a login system using Node JS Express and Passport, incorporating Passport's local strategy: .
- The database in use is MongoDB.
- An issue I'm facing is the inconsistency of successful logins (especially with 'User A') on Android devices such as phones and tablets. The error received is a 401 (unauthorized error).
- However, logging in with 'User A' proves to be consistent from a desktop computer and iOS devices like iPhones and iPads.
Any suggestions or insights on what might be causing this issue?
Below shows the authentication code being executed:
app_api/config/passport.js
var passport = require('passport');
var LocalStrategy = require('passport-local').Strategy;
var mongoose = require('mongoose');
var User = mongoose.model('User');
// Rest of the code remains the same
app_api/controllers/authentication.js
var passport = require('passport');
var mongoose = require('mongoose');
var User = mongoose.model('User');
// Rest of the code remains the same
Further below is the controller app_server/controllers/index.js showing the function logincontinue, which invokes the function login found in app_api/controllers/authentication.js:
app_server/controllers/index.js
var request = require('request');
// Rest of the code remains the same
