Java Adding Authentication

401 Unauthorized

Since nobody responded to the person with almost the same topic. Here I am trying my luck. 

@Configuration
@EnableWebSecurity
@EnableGlobalMethodSecurity(prePostEnabled = true)
public class WebSecurityConfiguration extends WebSecurityConfigurerAdapter {
    @Autowired
    DetailsService userDetailsService;

    @Override
    protected void configure(AuthenticationManagerBuilder auth) throws Exception {
        auth.userDetailsService(userDetailsService)
                .passwordEncoder(User.PASSWORD_ENCODER);
    }

    @Override
    protected void configure(HttpSecurity http) throws Exception {
        http.authorizeRequests().anyRequest().authenticated()
                .and().httpBasic()
                .and().csrf().disable();
    }
}

Can't find the mistake. I guess it has to do with the version? Would be nice if someone could confirm that. Craig Dennis?

My guess is the issue lies within the UserService. Would you mind posting that too?

Did you fix the parameter order for the User class constructor, as mentioned in the first ~20 seconds of the video?

When saving data in DataBaseLoader it assumes first parameter is username, but in previous videos the constructor was autogenerated with firstName as first parameter - so you would only have usernames like "Jacob", "Norman" etc in the database.

Yeah I did :/ Is it working for you? Would it be possible for you to share your code?

I am still getting a 401 no matter what i try, either username or first name

package com.teamtreehouse.core;

import org.springframework.context.annotation.Bean;
import org.springframework.context.annotation.Configuration;
import org.springframework.security.config.annotation.method.configuration.EnableGlobalMethodSecurity;
import org.springframework.security.config.annotation.web.builders.HttpSecurity;
import org.springframework.security.config.annotation.web.configuration.EnableWebSecurity;
import org.springframework.security.web.SecurityFilterChain;

import static org.springframework.http.HttpMethod.OPTIONS;

@Configuration
@EnableWebSecurity
@EnableGlobalMethodSecurity(prePostEnabled = true)
public class WebSecurityConfiguration  {

@Bean
public SecurityFilterChain configure(HttpSecurity http) throws Exception {
    http
            .csrf().disable()
            .authorizeHttpRequests((requests) -> requests
                    .requestMatchers(OPTIONS).permitAll() // allow CORS option calls for Swagger UI
                    .requestMatchers("/openapi/openapi.yml").permitAll()
                    .anyRequest().authenticated())
            .httpBasic();
    return http.build();
   }
}

Here is the list of students

 List<User_Entity> students = Arrays.asList(
                new User_Entity("jacobproffer", "Jacob",  "Proffer", "password", new String[] {"ROLE_USER"}),
                new User_Entity("mlnorman", "Mike",  "Norman", "password", new String[] {"ROLE_USER"}),
                new User_Entity("k_freemansmith", "Karen",  "Freeman-Smith", "password", new String[] {"ROLE_USER"}),
                new User_Entity("seth_lk", "Seth",  "Kroger", "password", new String[] {"ROLE_USER"}),
                new User_Entity("mrstreetgrid", "Java",  "Vince", "password", new String[] {"ROLE_USER"}),
                new User_Entity("anthonymikhail", "Tony",  "Mikhail", "password", new String[] {"ROLE_USER"}),
                new User_Entity("boog690", "AJ",  "Teacher", "password", new String[] {"ROLE_USER"}),
                new User_Entity("faelor", "Erik",  "Faelor Shafer", "password", new String[] {"ROLE_USER"}),
                new User_Entity("christophernowack", "Christopher",  "Nowack", "password", new String[] {"ROLE_USER"}),
                new User_Entity("calebkleveter", "Caleb",  "Kleveter", "password", new String[] {"ROLE_USER"}),
                new User_Entity("richdonellan", "Rich",  "Donnellan", "password", new String[] {"ROLE_USER"}),
                new User_Entity("albertqerimi", "Albert",  "Qerimi", "password", new String[] {"ROLE_USER"})
        );

With this error

There is no PasswordEncoder mapped for the id "null"
