AuthError: Incorrect username or password but can register

[confusionhill]

Describe the bug

I tried to call the sign in method on amplify

func signIn(username: String, password: String) {
        let options = AWSAuthSignInOptions(authFlowType: .userSRP)
        Amplify.Auth.signIn(
            username: username,
            password: password,
            options: .init(pluginOptions: options)) { result in
            switch result {
            case .success(let resp):
                print("is signed in? ",resp.isSignedIn)
            case .failure(let err):
                print("error bro : ",err)
            }
        }
    }

but the server responded with "AuthError: Incorrect username or password", somehow registration works like a charm without any trouble so what did I do wrong to be exact?

here's my configuration

{
  "auth": {
    "plugins": {
      "awsCognitoAuthPlugin": {
        "IdentityManager": {
          "Default": {}
        },
        "CredentialsProvider": {
          "CognitoIdentity": {
            "Default": {
              "PoolId": "ap-southeast-1:xxxxxx",
              "Region": "ap-southeast-1"
            }
          }
        },
        "CognitoUserPool": {
          "Default": {
            "PoolId": "ap-southeast-1_xxxxxx",
            "AppClientId": "7590jxxxxx",
            "Region": "ap-southeast-1"
          }
        },
        "Auth": {
          "Default": {
            "authenticationFlowType": "USER_SRP_AUTH",
            "OAuth": {}
          }
        }
      }
    }
  }
}

note : I did not set any client secret, so I still have no idea why it doesn't work

Would you be able to share how you call signIn method in your code?

Seems like an email is harcoded in the method!

Also share verbose logs enabling verbose logging for Amplify.

[confusionhill]

since it's in my local env, the email is hard coded into the code, is it not possible?

final class LoginViewController: BaseViewController {

    override func viewDidLoad() {
        super.viewDidLoad()
        self.view.backgroundColor = .white
        self.signIn(username:"[email protected]", password:"mypassword")
    }
    
    func signIn(username: String, password: String) {
        let options = AWSAuthSignInOptions(authFlowType: .userSRP)
        
        Amplify.Auth.signIn(
            username: "[email protected]",
            password: password,
            options: .init(pluginOptions: options)) { result in
            switch result {
            case .success(let resp):
                print("is signed in? ",resp.isSignedIn)
            case .failure(let err):
                print("error bro : ",err)
            }
        }
    }

}

The emails are different.

self.signIn(username:"[email protected]", password:"mypassword")

Amplify.Auth.signIn(
            username: "[email protected]",

The emails are different.

self.signIn(username:"[email protected]", password:"mypassword")

Amplify.Auth.signIn(
            username: "[email protected]",

it was a typo, I've updated it

It says that you've exceeded the password attempt count. I would recommend to create a new user and is you still see an error, please share verbose logs with us.

You can enable verbose logging to the console by doing this before calling Amplify.configure:

Amplify.Logging.logLevel = .verbose

still doesn't give me any hint

error bro :  AuthError: Incorrect username or password.
Recovery suggestion: Check whether the given values are correct and the user is authorized to perform the operation.

@confusionhill Would you be able to share the entire log? Everything that Amplify is doing from the start to better understand what is going on here.
