Cannot connect to MongoDb when using authentication (on a remote server)

[abhigantech]

I'm using latest MongoDb server that is installed on a remote windows server (2019), I'm using following settings in MongoDb config file:

network interfaces

net:
port: 27017
bindIp: 0.0.0.0

security:
authorization: enabled

When I connect to this server using MongoDb Compass it works fine, I can also connect to it using MongoDb C# driver, but for some reason AspNetCore.Identity.Mongo cannot connect to it with authentication (it works fine when I disable the authorization setting in config.)

I'm using following code:

builder.Services.AddIdentityMongoDbProvider<UserLogin, MongoUserRole, string>(identity =>
    {
        identity.Password.RequiredLength = 8;
        // other options
    },
    mongo =>
    {
        mongo.ConnectionString = "mongodb://userName:password@serverIP:27017/dbName?authMechanism=SCRAM-SHA-1";
        // other options
    });

Expected behavior
It should connect

But it throws following error:
MongoDB.Driver.MongoAuthenticationException: Unable to authenticate using sasl protocol mechanism SCRAM-SHA-1.
