It was corrected two days ago. And yesterday I committed some changes to heroku and the application crashed, I found from heroku logs that:

/app/.bundle/gems/ruby/1.9.1/gems/mongo-1.4.0/lib/mongo/db.rb:137:in `issue_authentication': Failed to authenticate user 'larryzhao' on db 'uthenera' (Mongo::AuthenticationError)

I even explicitly input the host/port/username/password/db name into mongoid.yml, still it could not get pass authentication.

I tried both database in Rackspace and in Amazon, but neither could authenticate.

Have you met with that before? Is there anything else I could check on Heroku besides heroku logs ?

Thanks.

    Make sure you’re using the right username to connect to your database. The username you use to log into mongolab.com is different from the one attached to the ‘uthenera’ database. Have a look at the Users tab for that database at mongolab.com to see what database user(s) you’ve configured.

    Hope that helps. Feel free to email support@mongolab.com if you need further assistance.
