Python Pymongo auth failed

Pymongo keep failing to login MongoDB. I typed right password for "root" account. 

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "index.py", line 3, in <module>
    from apis import app
  File "/home/app/apis/__init__.py", line 16, in <module>

    import auth

pymongo.errors.OperationFailure: command SON([('authenticate', 1), ('user', u'root'), ('nonce', u'9e44852e6597a1de'), ('key', u'f132369d21874c9858409e235abff25f')]) failed: auth failed

Here is pymongo

import pymongo

connection = pymongo.MongoClient("127.0.0.1")
connection.api.authenticate("root","1234")
db = connection.api

does pymongo use md5 on password? it looks like there is some different password in mongodb data.

here is mongodb admin system.users data

{ "user": "root", "pwd": "cde0d84e6749c235a3b4e36d945eb6fe", "roles": [ "userAdminAnyDatabase" ] }

Do you see what is wrong?

Looks like you have to cut the certificate from the Bluemix MongoDB Credentials, save in a file (e.g. certificate.pem), and refer to it as follows:

client = pymongo.MongoClient(uri_string, ssl_ca_certs='c:\data\certificate.pem')

In my case, I upgraded pymongo

pip install --upgrade pymongo

I tried to connect table called api.

connection.api.authenticate("root","1234")

There wasn't admin account in api table. I did put in system.admin table. So, I created a new admin account in api table and it worked.
