Getting this error while accessing collection

Working with Data
1

There was an unexpected error (type=Internal Server Error, status=500).
Command failed with error 2 (BadValue): 'Field ‘locale’ is invalid in: { locale: “movies” }

2

What command were you executing to result in this error?

3

I was running spring boot application

4

And what was the code you executed to throw this error? Do you have schema validation enabled, and if so is it set to strict?

What is the exact code you’re running, if you give more details it’s easier for someone to see what could be the issue.

MoviesApplication file:

import org.springframework.boot.autoconfigure.SpringBootApplication;

@SpringBootApplication
public class MoviesApplication {

	public static void main(String[] args) {
		SpringApplication.run(MoviesApplication.class, args);
	}


}

}

MovieController

package dev.harsh.movies;

import org.springframework.beans.factory.annotation.Autowired;
import org.springframework.http.HttpStatus;
import org.springframework.http.ResponseEntity;
import org.springframework.web.bind.annotation.GetMapping;
import org.springframework.web.bind.annotation.Mapping;

        return new ResponseEntity<List<Movie>>(movieService.allMovies(), HttpStatus.OK);
    }

Movie

package dev.harsh.movies;

import lombok.AllArgsConstructor;
import lombok.Data;
import lombok.NoArgsConstructor;
import org.springframework.data.mongodb.core.mapping.Document;
import org.springframework.data.annotation.Id;
import org.bson.types.ObjectId;
import org.springframework.data.mongodb.core.mapping.DocumentReference;

import java.util.List;

@Document(collation = "movies")
@Data
@AllArgsConstructor
@NoArgsConstructor
public class Movie {
    private ObjectId id;
    private String  imdbId;
    private String title;
    private String releaseDate;
    private String trailerLink;
    private String poster;
    private List<String> genres;
    private List<String> backdrops;
    @DocumentReference
    private List<Review> reviewIds;
}

Spring / Java is not my speciality but do the documents in the collection have the locale field but the class definition it’s trying to map the data to does not?

11

Use @Document(collection = “movies”) instead @Document(collation = “movies”)
I got the same :slight_smile:

Brother, you are a lifesaver, I am new to everything, and I have no clue of what I am doing. I cannot believe there was a person with the exact specific problem as me and someone else who figured it out too. Thanks so much for the solution, really appreciate it.
