Username and password does not match

[jhani_debruin]

Hi,

I got activiti 5.11 up and running but when I try to login to activiti-rest:
http://localhost:8080/activiti-rest/service/login
body:
{
  "userId": "kermit",
  "password": "kermit"
}

I get the following error in the logs: 'Username and password does not match'

I can log in with activiti-explorer and there I can see the different users.

Can you help me with this please?

How are you posting this request? Using curl? Can you paste how exactly you are calling this service.

Got it working last night, was using a rest console to make the calls. But the database was not accessible by the rest calls. Installing the tcp h2 script and then changing the db.properties to: jdbc.url=jdbc:h2:tcp://localhost/~/activiti solved the problem.

ah indeed, the users are indeed not known to the system then.

Thanks for posting back!
