Are you connecting to Class cluster or Sandbox cluster(your own)?
From your message it appears you are trying to connect to Class cluster
Please paste full command you used or screen shot

Thanks for prompt response. This is the command that I used.

C:\Users\alagb>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/test?replicaSet=Cluster0-shard-0 --authenticationDatabase admin --ssl --username m001-student --password m001-mongodb-basics

Thanks
Solomon

I am having the same problem! However, the name of my sandbox cluster is Sandbox and the “Copy” option that I have from the atlas copies only this:
mongo "mongodb+srv://sandbox-yom3b.mongodb.net/test" --username m001-student

Then a password pops up but after writing it it displays an error saying it cannot connect.

Hi @Ines_55979,

Please add the password option in your Connection string as follows:

mongo “mongodb+srv://sandbox-yom3b.mongodb.net/test” --username m001-student --password <your_password>

Please let me know, if you still face any issue.

Thanks,
Sonali

Ines_55979 · May 22, 2019, 1:00pm

I tried like that already and get the same error! Do you mean with the <> too? ?
Thank you

Sonali_Mamgain · May 22, 2019, 2:31pm

Hi @Ines_55979,

No, you just need to put the password.

Please share the connection string with the error you are getting after adding password option in the string.
Also, ensure that you are using the correct password.

Thanks,
Sonali

Ines_55979 · May 22, 2019, 4:30pm

Solved!! Thank you :))

Phyo_Wai_48750 · May 22, 2019, 4:42pm

I add the password string and start the connection but an error message displays.

Please help me.
Thanks.

Lei_70670 · May 23, 2019, 12:46am

Ch 2 Lab2.0 Install MongoDB cluster. The registerFromAltas is hung. Won’t let me type and thing/

Sonali_Mamgain · May 23, 2019, 9:18am

Hi @Phyo_Wai_48750,

This is just a warning and you can ignore it. You might already be connected to the Atlas cluster.

Please let me know, if you still have any issue.

Thanks,
Sonali

moeed_77345 · May 23, 2019, 12:21pm

i am using below command but unable to connect

mongo “mongodb+srv://sandbox-wff1x.mongodb.net/test” --username m001-student

Sonali_Mamgain · May 23, 2019, 12:54pm

Hi @moeed_77345,

Please remove the inverted commas (" ") in the connection string.

You can use this connection string to connect to your sandbox cluster:

mongo mongodb+srv://sandbox-wff1x.mongodb.net/test --username m001-student --password m001-mongodb-basics

Please let me know, if you still face any issue.

Thanks,
Sonali

moeed_77345 · May 23, 2019, 1:27pm

I am trying to connect to sandbox cluster from windows shell.
Tried both the version of the connection string as given below, but still getting “connect failed” exception. “Error: Authentication failed.”

mongo “mongodb+srv://sandbox-hygki.mongodb.net/test” --username m001-student --password m001-mongodb-basics

mongo mongodb+srv://sandbox-hygki.mongodb.net/test --username m001-student --password m001-mongodb-basics

Can you please help.

Ramachandra_Tummala · May 28, 2019, 2:35am

There is no issue with your commands
I am able to connect with and without quotes

Daniel_79560 · May 28, 2019, 3:42am

I keep getting what looks to be a parsing error. Odd thing is, even though I was previously able to connect to the class’s cluster, I now get the same error.
Here’s the command for my sandbox cluster:
mongo "mongodb+srv://sandbox-7mkrb.mongodb.net/test" --username m001-student --password m001-mongodb-basics
Here’s there error:
2019-05-27T23:37:35.102-0400 E QUERY [thread1] Error: Failed to parse mongodb:// URL: mongodb://mongodb+srv://sandbox-7mkrb.mongodb.net/test : connect@src/mongo/shell/mongo.js:237:clock1130:
Any help is greatly appreciated.
