I'm trying to dump a MongoDB database to an archive. Using the following command as given in documentation.
sudo mongodump --uri=mongodb://username:password#host:27017/dbname?authMechanism=SCRAM-SHA-1&authSource=authdb --archive=file.archive
But it doesn't dump as expected rather it creates a dump folder with .json file for each collection, which should be a single archive file as given.
It also shows the following error -
--archive=file.archive: command not found
Mongo version -
MongoDB shell version v3.6.3
I had this problem & I figured out the reason it was happening.
The command I was running was
sudo /usr/bin/mongodump --uri=mongodb+srv://{username}:{password}#{atlasendpoint}.mongodb.net/?retryWrites=true&w=majority --archive={filename}.archive --gzip 2>&1
I was getting the same error as you. I change the shell command by wrapping quotation marks around the URL; this fixed it for me.
sudo /usr/bin/mongodump --uri="mongodb+srv://{username}:{password}#{atlasendpoint}.mongodb.net/?retryWrites=true&w=majority" --archive={filename}.archive --gzip 2>&1
I am trying to export mongodb collection with:
mongoexport -d InventoryPLC -c Spectra -o spectra.json;
but it is giving me error:
Syntax missing ; before statement
I search on mongodb website and other reference websites:
mongoexport -d InventoryPLC -c Spectra;
I want to export collection.
I checked stackoverflow examples and mongodb documentation:
mongoexport -d InventoryPLC -c Spectra -o spectra.json;
I want exported collection, but have had no luck.
Appreciate the help.
You are probably trying to run mongoexport from inside the Mongo shell. That command must be executed outside it, from your OS command shell.
The issue seems straight forward. I have a database (test) and a collection called (users) so I run the command:
mongoexport -d test -c users -o output.json
However I get the below error:
As per what I have figured out till now over the internet, this may have something to do with the file path but I am unsure as how to amend this as I never mess with PATH variable due to a bad experience...
You don't run mongoexport from the mongo shell, you have to run it from the OS shell (same as you run mongo)
mongoexport is not a Mongo shell command, it's an operating system command.
Just like you run mongo.exe to start the shell from OS prompt, you should run mongoexport the same way from OS prompt. Example:
c:\mongodb\bin>mongoexport --db ventfeed --collection users --out C:\temp\contacts.json
Thanks
Dear MongoDb experts,
So I have an assignment of which the first step is to import a java script file called Grades. I have the file stored in IPD351 folder in my C drive. I am running the following command in my command prompt after connecting to the mongo db server:
MongoDB Enterprise > mongoimport -d students -c grades <C:\foldername\filename.js
But I get the following error:
2016-04-18T13:35:04.983-0500 E QUERY [thread1] SyntaxError: missing ; before statement #(shell):1:15
Please help! If the file does not get imported I cannot do the remaining homework
RESOLVED! I was in the mongo enterprise, typed exit, got out of enterprise and then typed the import command and it worked! The new line looks like this:
C:\Users\Akhil\mongoDb> mongoimport -d students -c grades
Don't use the < just ype the file path:
mongoimport -d students -c grades C:\IPD351\grades.js
I tried mongo import like this
mongoimport -d test -c foo importfile.json
mongoimport --host localhost --db local --collection lecturer --type json --file temp.json --headerline --upsert
and I've got same error message "Syntax Error: missing ; before statement (shell):1"
what's wrong with my code & how to import if my data stored in C:\Documents and Settings\User\Desktop ?? please help, thank's in advance
mongoimport is intended to run in command prompt and not in the mongo shell. Try exiting out of the shell and running the command.
One solution is:
First, in cmd, change to the directory containing mongoexport.exe file, then type your command.
C:\Program Files\MongoDB\Server\3.2\bin> .\mongoexport.exe -d foo -c bar -o output.json
mongoimport is to be run on the terminal and not inside the mongo shell. To run mongoimport in terminal, you will need to install the same. On ubuntu, you can do :
apt-get install mongo-tools
Hope this helps :)
I had the same problem and was able to figure it out after a brief struggling and googling.
1. Navigate to the bin directory in command prompt
(cd c:..\bin)
2. Run the mongoimport command but you have to specify the full path of your json file.
That solves the problem
try to use CSV is a good.
mongoimport -d mydb -c things --type csv --file locations.csv --headerline --upsert
You can convert by ms excel.
Open the "Mongo/Server/3.4/bin" folder of mongo db in another command window and try again.It Will work.
Open a new terminal or command prompt within the location of the file you want to import and it should work. It will not work on MongoDB shell
