50 PointsUser.authenticate gets error
when i run the code as provided by you i get an error in this line of block
router.post('/login', function(req, res, next) {
if (req.body.email && req.body.password) {
User.authenticate(req.body.email, req.body.password, function (error, user) {
if (error || !user) {
var err = new Error('Wrong email or Password.');
console.log(err);
err.status = 401;
return next(err);
} else {
req.session.userId = user._id;
return res.redirect('/profile');
}
});
and also with the last line of "return callback();" from compare
bcrypt.compare("password", "user.password" , function(error, result) {
console.log(result==true);
if (result === true) {
return callback(null, user);
} else {
return callback();
}
})
});
what am i missing or doing wrong??

13,034 PointsFor the first error, you're missing a closing } on the first "If" inside the post function. You also need to close out the post function itself, as well.
For the second error, you are missing a ";" as the end of the second to last line to end the bcrypt.compare function. You included the "});" on the last line that closes User.findOne();
