[mongodb-user] Connection error : MongoDB Shell to MongoDB Atlas

[RAJ SINGH]

Hi,

I have been trying to connect mongoDB shell from my local system to below
cluster used for mongoDB class on EDX portal :

mongo
"mongodb://cluster0-shard-00-00-jxeqq.mongodb.net:27017,cluster0-shard-00-01-jxeqq.mongodb.net:27017,cluster0-shard-00-02-jxeqq.mongodb.net:27017/100YWeatherSmall?replicaSet=cluster0-shard-0"
--authenticationDatabase admin --ssl --username m001-student --password
m001-mongodb-basics

Getting below error every time :

*2018-05-26T19:22:05.396+0530 E QUERY [thread1] SyntaxError: missing ;
before statement @(shell):1:6 *

I am able to connect successfully with Atlas cluster via mongoDB compass
from my system but shell connection has failed.

MongoDB version installed : 3.6
MongoDB Shell version : 3.6.5

Tried searching but was not able to resolve problem. Please could you help .

Thanks
raj

Hi Raj

2018-05-26T19:22:05.396+0530 E QUERY [thread1] SyntaxError: missing ;
before statement @(shell):1:6

Could you run the mongo shell command using the --norc parameter?

If you can connect without any issue, you may want to take a look at your
~/.mongorc.js (in Unix systems) file and check it for errors — a missing
semicolon from the error message. See the mongorc.js page
<https://docs.mongodb.com/manual/mongo/#mongorc-js-file> for more
information.

If you still having errors, please post the complete shell output you’re
seeing from mongo invocation up to the error.

Best regards
Kevin

Hi Kevin,

Thanks for responding mate. I did try what you mentioned but that did not
help me. Please find attached snapshots for your reference.

I have mongoDB 3.6.5 2008R2Plus Enterprise (64 Bit) and MongoDB Compass
installed on my system as suggested in MongoDB basics class. Interesting
part is i am able to connect to both Altas clusters [ one cluster shared in
mongoDB class and second one which i created online via mongoDB portal ]
via compass installed on my system.

thanks
Raj

Hi Raj

The mongo shell is a Javascript interpreter. Trying to type mongo <server
address> <additional parameters> inside the shell is a syntax error (it is
not a Javascript statement or any supported command). This is the source of
the SyntaxError: missing ; before statement output.

There are more details in the mongo shell page
<https://docs.mongodb.com/manual/mongo/> regarding the shell.

To connect to your Atlas instance, you should type at the command prompt:

C:\Users\user> mongo "mongodb://<your Atlas deployment address>" --ssl --authenticationDatabase admin --username <your username> --password <PASSWORD>

I would also recommend you to peruse the free courses at the MongoDB
University <https://university.mongodb.com/>, e.g. M001
<https://university.mongodb.com/courses/M001/about> which is a thorough
introduction to MongoDB. The next session will start at 5 June.

Best regards
Kevin
