SUMMARY

• Using Adminer I like to create a MongoDB database and tables. When I try to create a table I get the following error.
  Fatal error: Uncaught Error: Call to a member function createCollection() on null in /var/www/default/htdocs/vendor/adminer-4.7.1-en.php:1202 Stack trace: #0 /var/www/default/htdocs/vendor/adminer-4.7.1-en.php(1840): alter_table('', 'item', Array, Array, NULL, '', '', '', '') #1 {main} thrown in /var/www/default/htdocs/vendor/adminer-4.7.1-en.php on line 1202.

• When I simply just create a MongoDB database inside Adminer and then log out of Adminer and go back to check https://localhost/db_mongo.php the newly created database is not listed, it is not there.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE

1. docker-compose up -d
2. Go to localhost, then click > Tools > Adminer.
3. On Adminer Login page select System : MongoDB and Server : mongo. I could not find info in the docs on the MongoDB Username or Password so I just leave those empty.
4. Next click Create database, give it a name, Save, done. Even though this database seems to have been created it does not show when going to https://localhost/db_mongo.php. Why?
5. Still in Adminer, with the newly created database click Create table, give it a name and hit Save.
6. Then you get Fatal error: Uncaught Error: Call to a member function createCollection() on null in /var/www/default/htdocs/vendor/adminer-4.7.1-en.php:1202 Stack trace: #0 /var/www/default/htdocs/vendor/adminer-4.7.1-en.php(1840): alter_table('', 'item', Array, Array, NULL, '', '', '', '') #1 {main} thrown in /var/www/default/htdocs/vendor/adminer-4.7.1-en.php on line 1202.

EXPECTED BEHAVIOUR

Being able to create MongoDB databases and tables with Adminer.

ACTUAL BEHAVIOUR

Created database is never saved or shown under https://localhost/db_mongo.php.
Fatal error when trying to create database table.

Creating the MongoDB database and collections via the CLI inside the PHP container works. Once that is done and a document (db entry) is created the database also starts showing on https://localhost/db_mongo.php.

So I made a database with a User and Password.
But still, when I try to log on to that specific database via the Adminer login page I get this error.
Database does not support password.

However in my code, in the connection string, when I change the user or password I cannot connect, so for me that proves that the database in question does indeed have the right user and access rights.

Here is the code I used to make a user and password for the database.

db.createUser(
  {
    user: "user",
    pwd: "password",
    roles: [ { role: "readWrite", db: "simpleappdb" } ]
  }
)

When I go into Adminer and just select System : MongoDB and Server : mongo I can see the database that was created with the CLI. However if I try to change it or add to it I get various fatal errors, depending on if I am trying to add, edit or delete a document or collection.

Why does it say Database does not support password. when I try to login through Adminer?

@robots4life Works fine here. What PHP, Mongo and Adminer version are you using?
