solClient_session_connect failed subCode: SOLCLIENT_SUBCODE_LOGIN_FAILURE, responseCode: 401, reason

PubSub+ Event Broker
1

I started a Solace broker docker instance, created message-vpn and username: esptest. When my solace pubsub client tries to connect to the broker using username/password, it gets “Unauthorized error”. I have set up the auth-type to internal and followed the doc: CLI Steps to Set Up VPNs With Client Profiles . Any ideas what could be wrong?
Trace:solClient_session_connect failed, error message = Not ready, subCode: SOLCLIENT_SUBCODE_LOGIN_FAILURE, responseCode: 401, reason: Unauthorized

Hi @yihuan ,
Can you double check that you are trying to connect with the client-username and not the management username that you would login to PS+ Manager with? Also that the client-username is enabled?
If all that looks correct check the logs for the container. You should be able to do that using docker logs solace  where solace is whatever you named the container.
Hope that helps!

Thanks @marc.dipasquale .
I have the client-username defined and enabled. I don’t see any related logs in docker logs solace either.

Hmm. Try a few more things for troubleshooting:
Are you using the default acl-profile or did you create a custom one? The ACL profile might be preventing you from being able to connect. Try to update the password on the client-username just to ensure it’s not the wrong password. That should be easy to do in the PubSub+ Manager. Try to use the “Try-Me” tab in the broker to connect with your client-username/password to see if it’s your app. If none of the above works you’ll need to go into your broker and access the logs. I’m not sure why docker logs solace didn’t show anything for you.

Thanks. It seems nothing works. Try-Me can’t connect:

My command to start the broker:
sudo docker run -d -p 8080:8080 -p 55555:55555 --shm-size=1g --env username_admin_globalaccesslevel=admin --env username_admin_password=admin --env TZ=US/Eastern --name=solace --mount type=bind,source=/mnt/solace,destination=/var/lib/solace,ro=false solace/solace-pubsub-standard
I do see error in logs but I don’t thinks it is related to my problem.
