Principle of Least Privilege is not getting validated

[asalineroj (Andres Salinero Jeffrey)]

I have set the user using MongoDB Atlas as shown in the images below

This did not work either:

I have updated the .ini file to use the new user
MFLIX_DB_URI = mongodb+srv://mflixAppUsert:mflixAppPwd@

when I start the server and check the status page, I get the following error when trying to validate
“Principle of Least Privilege: It doesn’t appear you have configured the application user”

Any pointer as to where I might be going wrong would be greatly appreciated!

MFLIX_DB_URI = mongodb+srv://mflixAppUsert:mflixAppPwd@

I see the username as mflixAppUsert in your string, can you try after correcting the username to mflixAppUser.

Its strange mongod did not throw an error.

Hello Kanika,

Thank you for pointing it out! The validation worked once I fixed the typo in my srv string.

As you say it is weird that mongo didn’t throw an error, but at least it is working now.

Thank you,
Andres
