ı have an issue with Meteor.loginWithPassword method when creating my login page…
I implemented all the directions which are in the meteor docs but I was’t able to get result successfully…
my handleSubmit function for login form like that;
const handleLoginSubmit = (e) => {
e.preventDefault()
Meteor.loginWithPassword( {email}, password, (error) => {
if(error){
console.log(error);
} else {
console.log("You logged in successfully")
};
});
}
when I insert incorrect email or password i am getting errors (“user not found”, “incorrect password”) but when i insert correct email and password it gives nothing…
the email and password belong the user which i created with Accounts.createUser() …The user can be seen in my mongoDB users collection.
Also when i insert correct values for email and password, loginTokens has been creating in services.resume in my user document mongoDB…
const user = meteor.user()
console.log(user)
returning “null”
what am i doing wrong ?

I think this problem is cronic for new meteor versions because i have the same problem and haven’t solved yet…
Unfortunately, the sources about this issue are insufficent on developer forums

I can confirm with
Meteor 2.11.0
accounts-base@2.2.7
accounts-password@2.3.4
everything works as aspected.
This is my function:
const signIn = (email, password, route, history) => {
return dispatch => {
Meteor.loginWithPassword(email, password, err => {
if (err) {
if (err.reason === 'User not found') {
err.reason = 'An account with this sign-in details does not exist. Try again or create a new account.'
}
dispatch({ // this is a Redux dispatch - just a function.
type: SIGN_IN,
payload: `Error logging email: ${err}`
})
} else {
dispatch(subscribeBasicUser())
dispatch({
type: SIGN_IN,
payload: email
})
history.push(route)
}
})
}
}

thanks Paul for your response…
now i am changing my versions and then try again…i will share the result
Meteor 2.11.0
accounts-base@2.2.7
accounts-password@2.3.4
i have upgraded my versions and tried again but nothing has changed 
You can get a local copy of accounts-password have it hooked to your project and add some console logs inside internalLoginWithPassword
that you can find in password_client.js
I tried internalLoginWithPassword
but noth,ng has changed…I couldn’t get any response on success
I am not sure you can use internalLoginWithPassword
in your client. My point was to log some outputs from the internal mechanism of the package and see where a return is being blocked for you.
Could u give me some more details because i can’t find password_client.js
What I do: download this package as a zip: meteor/packages/accounts-password at devel · meteor/meteor · GitHub
Alternatively you can get the whole repo as a zip and only pull out this package from the zip.
In your main project folder (where you have package.json) create a folder named packages
. Put accounts-password in the folder, go to its package.js and increase the version number.
meteor remove accounts-password
followed by meteor add accounts-password
.
Now you should be running with your local version. This is the procedure to run any Meteor local package.
Now in the file I mentioned you can find the login function. Every update of a local package should trigger a restart of the dev server. If this doesn’t happen, make sure you restart the server to make sure you are running with the updated version of the local package.
I think I did what you said…I can get error result when an err occured, but on success there is no result…It seems missing in userCallback function “else” part.
output of incorrect password ;
output of correct password;
***the output of “package used…” is getting from loginWithPassword funtion in password_client.js
Also updates in password_client.js don’t trigger a restart of the dev server but client refresh…
I m using updated packages
Meteor 2.11.0
accounts-base@2.2.7
accounts-password@2.3.4
Versions are same in both meteor folder and local packages folder
Is there anyone who has an idea about the source of the problem ?

Sometimes it just happens and there is no way to tell why it happens that way.
Look, on OSX, all Meteor packages are under username/.meteor/packages/package_name/versions…
All previous versions are stored there. It happened to me in the past to have problems with some core packages after Meteor release updates. A new release would still use an old package in dev although the latest package was showing in the packages file.
I suggest you do a meteor remove
for all accounts related packages and delete all related folders under meteor packages and then re-add the packages. Alternatively you can delete all packages and let Meteor reinstall all of them.
I think problem is related with the mongoDB version because i created a new meteor project with the latest mongo version and used same login component and then it works 
I will try upgrade my main mongo version
