[FIXED] How to logged in to mongodb as admin?

Issue

I created admin:

> use admin
switched to db admin
> db.createUser(
...   {
...     user: 'admin',
...     pwd: 'password',
...     roles: [ { role: 'root', db: 'admin' } ]
...   }
... );
Successfully added user: {
        "user" : "admin",
        "roles" : [
                {
                        "role" : "root",
                        "db" : "admin"
                }
        ]
}
> exit;

But when I wanted to logged in I get an error:

> use admin
switched to db admin
> db.auth('admin','password');
Error: Authentication failed.
0

I tried also with:

mongo --port 27017  --authenticationDatabase "admin" -u "admin" -p "password"

and:

mongo localhost:27017/admin -u admin -p password

But it also doesn't work.

Solution

After restarting my PC, I was able to log in to mongodb as admin.
