[07:30:56] <savantgarde_> what does the --service option to mongod on Windows mean?
[07:31:46] <savantgarde_> trying to install a mongod service with a 3rd party service manager, and the --service option just causes mongod to exit AFAICT, even though the documentation says to use this option
[07:31:58] <savantgarde_> i.e., if you install the Windows service manually
[07:32:11] <savantgarde_> I can't find any documentation on --service either
[07:39:10] <joannac> savantgarde_: which documentation?
[07:47:52] <savantgarde_> that option can probably be disregarded; I've installed the service leaving that option out, and it works fine AFAICT
[07:48:53] <joannac> savantgarde_: would you please open a DOCS ticket with these details? At least, we can remove the --service option. At best, we can figure out why mongod.exe won't start with --service
[14:41:52] <digicyc> There are a couple Java gurus here I believe though.
[14:43:27] <tamm0r> well then... when retrieving documents the java driver silently strips out \u0000 characters from field values... is this expected behaviour?
[14:58:30] <skot> tamm0r: nulls are not allowed in field names; see the bson spec: http://bsonspec.org/spec.html
[15:47:32] <tamm0r> skot: the nulls are in field _values_, not in the names
[15:49:07] <skot> Then I'd be surprised, and you should file a jira issue with a repro if it isn't this one: https://jira.mongodb.org/browse/JAVA-1070
[15:51:20] <tamm0r> skot: the weird thing is that I can store string values with null chars using the java driver, but during retrieval the null chars are silently stripped out
[16:09:05] <vrkid> hi, I'm trying to setup external authentication to mongodb (LDAP) and I followed the tutorial, but it doesn't work... I've found (running the server with -vvvvv) that it does [db].$cmd saslStart than calls the 'parseAndRemoveImpersonatedRolesField' auding method. After that it tries to look for the user locally (3 attempts) after which it fails with SASL(-13) Authentication failure: Password verification failed"
[16:09:37] <vrkid> anyone can try and help me understand what is going on?
[16:18:46] <vrkid> another question: what is the file /usr/lib64/sasl2/mongodb.conf for?
[16:19:59] <PirosB3> If I have a collection that looks like this: https://gist.github.com/64b7ad99f02fb810214d is it possible to $push to multiple arrays at once?
[16:20:58] <PirosB3> for example, can I do {$push: { friends: {33: [{x,y,z}, {x,y,z}, …], 35: [{x,y,z}, {x,y,z}, …]}} ?
[18:12:40] <daidoji> hello, is there any way to append aggregations? or do I have to do that in the application?
[18:33:07] <sellout> daidoji: Because we have a higher-level library for Scala that makes reuse of portions of queries a lot easier. Just internal currently, but planning to pull it into its own OSS project.
[18:33:50] <daidoji> sellout: ahhh, I see. Unfortunately I'm not on a jvm language at the moment
[18:34:26] <daidoji> sellout: however, I'm really just griping because Mongo isn't really suited to analytical things and when I try to do it all in Mongo aggregation or mapReduce its really annoying
[18:35:00] <daidoji> I never knew how much I would miss SQL until it was gone
[18:35:03] <sellout> daidoji: That is actually the more general problem we’re working on: http://slamdata.com
[18:37:12] <sellout> The SQL is really just a stepping stone. Easiest way to make use of the intermediate relational++ model, which eventually other analysis tools will be built on.
[18:37:56] <daidoji> sellout: ahhhh, well I'll take a look
[19:01:17] <terrellt> So I have a query that gets generated with a bunch of ORs and it runs pretty slow. It seems to be using an index appropriately - anything I can do?
[19:09:49] <daidoji> terrellt: what's your query doing? gist it?
[19:11:04] <terrellt> I would, but getting the output's not that straightforward. Effectively I have a document structure of {:s => "stuff", :p => "stuff", :o => "stuff"} with an index on s/p/o. Searching for all items which have a s/p combo from an array of possibilities.
[20:09:22] <culthero> great. Secondly quick clarification on auth / keyfiles.. if I make a keyfile and copy it across config, mongos, and shards authentication .. then just works right?
[20:09:39] <culthero> as long as all configs are pointing to the right spot?
[20:19:42] <decompiled> Yup, adding a mongos is as simple as pointing that host to the config servers and including the key
[20:37:38] <akp> hello. i am playing with some mongo and php, and i am a bit miffed by this issue i am having. i am trying to use findOne() it seems to work for one value, but the other values it doesn't seem to work. here is a pastebin to the code and the mongo values - http://pastebin.com/MHKdV1DE
