How to configure jaas.conf to use mysql backend authentication?

After a clean install of the docker container with the latest version, and inserting a user in the mysql database, I get this error when I try to login to the frontend ui.

wherehows-frontend_1       | 2018-08-01 22:43:12 WARN  application:390 - Authentication error!

Is there a way to configure the jaas.conf to use the mysql backend?

@sauravGit : To get a user into the local database, I used the method from #874:

INSERT INTO wherehows.users (name, email, username, password_digest, password_digest_type, authentication_type) VALUES ('Your Name', '[e-mail]', 'YourUsername, SHA1('YourPassword'), 'SHA1', 'default');

Seems you have done the same(?), so not sure what the problem is. However, to get the frontend to use the passwordbased auth mechanism, I added

ENV JAVA_OPTS -Djava.security.auth.login.config=/application/conf/jaas.conf

to the frontend Dockerfile. I was then able to get through the auth without LDAP, but then got an error (see above). I have not been able to test it further since then. Hoping to by the end of next month.

@mbd-dbc-dk : I tried inserting the records in users table. Still it not working
