SASLError using PLAIN: not-authorized


I am trying to shift my app from aSmack to Smack 4.1.1. However I am having trouble using the same server and login details in the case of Smack while on aSmack it is working excellently.

Here's my old code of login in aSmack -

void startConnect(boolean sslFlag) throws XMPPException, SmackException, IOException {
        ConnectionConfiguration connectionConfig =
                new ConnectionConfiguration(HOST, Integer.parseInt(PORT), SERVICE);
        connectionConfig.setDebuggerEnabled(true);
        connectionConfig.setCompressionEnabled(false);

        if (sslFlag)
            SASLAuthentication.supportSASLMechanism("PLAIN", 0);

        XMPPConnection connection = new XMPPTCPConnection(connectionConfig);

            connection.connect();
            connection.login(mUserName, mUserPassword, getResource());

            // Set status to online / available
            Presence presence = new Presence(Presence.Type.available);
            connection.sendPacket(presence);
            setConnection(connection);
    }

I am trying to use code on similar fashion in Smack too -

public void init() {
        SmackConfiguration.DEBUG = true;
        XMPPTCPConnectionConfiguration config = XMPPTCPConnectionConfiguration.builder()
                .setHost(SERVICE_NAME)
                .setPort(5222)
                .setServiceName(SERVICE_NAME)
                .setSecurityMode(ConnectionConfiguration.SecurityMode.disabled)
                .setDebuggerEnabled(true)
                .build();
        mConnection = new XMPPTCPConnection(config);

//I have tried with blacklisting and unblacklisting all three mechanism.
        //SASLMechanism mechanism = new SASLPlainMechanism(); //This didn't help
        //SASLAuthentication.registerSASLMechanism(mechanism);
        SASLAuthentication.blacklistSASLMechanism("SCRAM-SHA-1");
        SASLAuthentication.blacklistSASLMechanism("DIGEST-MD5");
        SASLAuthentication.unBlacklistSASLMechanism("PLAIN"); 
        try {
            mConnection.connect();
            return;
        } catch (SmackException e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
        } catch (IOException e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
        } catch (XMPPException e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
        }
        mConnection = null;
    }

    public void login(String username, String password) throws IOException, XMPPException, SmackException {

        if(mConnection==null || !mConnection.isConnected()){
            init();
            if(mConnection==null){
                throw new IOException();
            }
        }
        mConnection.login(username/*+"@"+SERVICE_NAME*/, password); //I have tried both the method by adding @Domain part and without it.

        mChatManager = ChatManager.getInstanceFor(mConnection);
        mChatManager.addChatListener(this);
    }

Here's the exception I am getting -

05-21 21:22:29.782  19536-23179/test W/System.err﹕ org.jivesoftware.smack.sasl.SASLErrorException: SASLError using PLAIN: not-authorized

This exception is same with SCRAM and DIGEST-MD5 too. It just changes the name.

Here's what I am getting from server -

05-21 21:22:29.512  19536-23189/test D/SMACK﹕ SENT (0): <stream:stream xmlns='jabber:client' to='xmpp.example.com' xmlns:stream='http://etherx.jabber.org/streams' version='1.0' xml:lang='en'>

What could be the issue here? I have tried with all three mechanism PLAIN, DIGEST-MD5 and the default SCRAM-SHA-1. I have also tried with or without adding domain name on it. I have tried it with adding username and password in configuration and by adding it directly on login method.

I have tried with required security mode too which gives the following error -

PS:
I need the solution in Smack 4.1.1. My code is already working good in aSmack, I need it to upgrade it in Smack. I guess it's clear now.


Solution

  • Ok, that was rather a silly mistake. The current code is perfectly fine. I accidentally put username in place of password. I got to know about the error when I tried to go back to aSmack.
