MongoDB Insert Document Practice Lab

Working with Data

I am using the mongoDb Insert Practice lab, however I get the error as below

root@mongodb:/app# db.accounts.insertOne(
bash: syntax error near unexpected token `newline’
root@mongodb:/app# {

account_id: 111333,
limit: 12000,
products: [
  "Commodity",
  "Brokerage"
  ],
"last_updated": new Date()

bash: syntax error near unexpected token (' root@mongodb:/app# } bash: syntax error near unexpected token }’
root@mongodb:/app# db.accounts.insertOne({
bash: syntax error near unexpected token {' root@mongodb:/app# account_id: 111333, bash: account_id:: command not found root@mongodb:/app# limit: 12000, bash: limit:: command not found root@mongodb:/app# products: [ bash: products:: command not found root@mongodb:/app# "Commodity", bash: Commodity,: command not found root@mongodb:/app# "Brokerage" bash: Brokerage: command not found root@mongodb:/app# ], bash: ],: command not found root@mongodb:/app# "last_updated": newDate() bash: syntax error near unexpected token (’

Same error here, I think they have are a problem setting up the environment, because really we are not inside a mongo shell. If we run “run.sh” file, we see this error:

File details and existing Atlas cluster match, using stored file details to connect to Atlas.

Re-running the ./run.sh as a network error occurred.

I also encountered the same error. How do I resolve it and move to the next exercise or lesson?

Hi, I have the same issue. I tried to resolve it by running shell connection string in command line. Also I needed to activate “ALLOW ACCESS FROM ANYWHERE” beforehand.

When connected I switched to db sample_analytics:
> use sample_analytics
After I ran the insert command.
The document was inserted and I can find it in DB (Atlas UI) but when I click “Check” I get:
“Incorrect solution
The document were not found in the database. Please try again”.

I hope it will be fixed soon.

In my case, I don’t have any errors, but I can’t see my data. If I run db.accounts.find() it lists all data without the new one. It looks like my data is not being inserted.

Same here, tried connecting via connection string & added the doc that way, however it still says “The document were not found in the database. Please try again” even though I can see the doc in the Atlas UI & Compass

Same issue here with mongodb-indexes lesson 2 lab. Seems like an issue accross all labs?

I encountered the same issue, so I tried using a MongoDB shell connection string and attempted to insert a document; however, I still received an error stating ‘document not found in the database.’

Yes I encountered the same error:

Hi All,

Can you please check again if you are still getting the same issue?

In case you are not getting connected automatically to the Atlas cluster after launching a lab, I would recommend you to send an email to learn@mongodb.com with details such as:

  • Course name and lab you are facing issue with.
  • What is the exact issue that you are getting?

Happy Learning, cheers!
