Moralis self hosted server auth fails

mars · March 20, 2023, 3:27pm

Hi, I have deployed self hosted moralis server locally. I’m getting error in function calls in endpoint like “/users” after metamask login . I have also increased TIMEOUT and EXPIRATION_TIME at authService.ts. Stuck on how to debug further.

The error is given below -

{ 
code: 101
error: "Moralis auth failed, invalid data"
}

console.log(error) at MoralisEthAdapter.

Hi, how does the message that you sign look like?

This is the payload of the request

this is a message specific to a managed moralis server and not to a self hosted server, you have to adapt the authentication for a self hosted server as in this tutorial:
https://v1docs.moralis.io/moralis-dapp/getting-started/self-hosting-moralis-server/client-connection#note-about-authentication

what issues are you having now, this looks like the expected format for the message

mars · March 21, 2023, 3:11pm

Getting same issue. If I connect to self hosted moralis server.

cryptokid · March 21, 2023, 3:14pm

this is the error that you get now?

mars · March 21, 2023, 3:35pm

Yes. I’m getting same error.

{ 
code: 101
error: "Moralis auth failed, invalid data"
}

cryptokid · March 21, 2023, 8:51pm

the message has this part at the, end, make sure that you didn’t modify the cloud function for getServerTime, that part from the end with app id and a timestamp should not be present in the message to sign

mars · March 22, 2023, 3:55am

Attached the current getServerTime function, which is modified to return similar response as the server one.

cryptokid · March 22, 2023, 5:41am

You don’t have to modify that function. If you modify it then the authentication will stop working.

DeathStar · March 23, 2023, 11:29am

Hey @cryptokid, I am facing the same issue of invalid auth. I am running the code given for migrating for both backend and frontend.

My getServerTime function is also untouched.

Parse.Cloud.define('getServerTime', () => {
  // Not implemented, only excists to remove client-side errors when using the moralis-v1 package
  return null;
});

If you can please help with it.

cryptokid · March 23, 2023, 11:53am

It looks like it displays the message, where is the issue?

DeathStar · March 23, 2023, 12:19pm

The same issue of

 { 
code: 101
error: "Moralis auth failed, invalid data"
}

This message also shows up recently, before this wasn’t the case. The authentication was working fine with self hosted DB.

As you mentioned above that getServerTime function shouldn’t be modified and due that this error is occurring. But for me I haven’t changed that function, still the same issue.

cryptokid · March 23, 2023, 12:27pm

Can you paste the compete message that you get to sign?

DeathStar · March 23, 2023, 12:54pm

sure, sign message

cryptokid · March 23, 2023, 3:32pm

I don’t see anything strange in this message

DeathStar · March 24, 2023, 4:53am

Respected @cryptokid, Please understand my issue.

Issue: I am not able to authenticate, on authenticating, I am getting

 { 
code: 101
error: "Moralis auth failed, invalid data"
}

Also, before when the metamask opens up, I don’t see the unsafe message, but now I am getting that also. So anything has changed from Moralis side?

As you were suggesting to @mars that this could be issue of changing getServerTime function, but in my case the function is as it is.

Now can you please give the insight?

DeathStar · March 24, 2023, 6:39am

Also if you can please help me decoding how to resolve

"Deceptive site request" message in Metamask, it means that the website you are trying to access through Metamask is not matching the domain for which you granted permission to access your Metamask account

As it wasn’t the case with moralis server, and also the self hosted in that matter, but for couple of days I am getting this warning on metamask.
