Hello,
In our project we need to create a temporary user for the web2py app
so that a remote system can send back a singe status update. In order
to do this, when the command is sent out we create a temporary user
like this:
settings["serverUser"] = str(uuid.uuid4())
settings["serverPassword"] = str(uuid.uuid4())
user = auth.get_or_create_user(dict(username=settings["serverUser"],
password=settings["serverPassword"]))
This adds the user/password to the database just fine, however, login
fails because of this line in login_bare:
password = table_user[passfield].validate(password)[0]
if I remove this line, the password is as expected, which leads me to
think that we are not adding the password in the first case properly.
Does it need to be hashed some way?
Matt
