Authentication local strategy not working with a Custom User service

[LetsDoIt-]

I am using a custom service to manage users and when i try to authenticate using email password it gives an error : a record with email of 'sgd@sgd100.com' did not exist and Invalid login error

But when i changed to in-memory user service it works like a charm.

At the moment a custom users service has to support

• An id property which contains the name of the id field
• Support a find method with params.query = { email } (email or usernameField ) to find the user/entity by the field name. It will work with or without pagination (either an array or an object with data in the array)
