Unable to connect to Atlas Cluster via mongosql

I installed the mongo BI connector on my macbook laptop and getting the following error connecting to the cluster

Also I tried creating a schema with the following command

mongodrdl --host marty-dev-cluster.cqjnr.mongodb.net:27017 --username xxxxxx --password yyyyy–db martyDev --out martySchema.drdl

It says no such host
Is your URI correct?
Can you connect by shell or other tool like Compass?

Hi @Ramachandra_Tummala
The URI correct. I can connect to the database when I use mongosh

mongosh “mongodb+srv://marty-dev-cluster.cqjnr.mongodb.net/martyDev” --username yyyy --password xxxxx

The name marty-dev-cluster.cqjnr.mongodb.net is the name of a cluster, not the name of an host. For this reason you cannot use the –host argument for mongosqld. Instead you have to use –mongo-uri.

Thanks @stevej.

For my BI connector mongosql I am using a config file see beelow
net:
  bindIp: "127.0.1" #, 192.168.0.248, 0.0.0.0"
  port: 3307
  ssl:
    mode: "disabled"

mongodb:
  # versionCompatibility: <string>
  net:
    uri: "marty-dev-cluster.cqjnr.mongodb.net:27015"
    ssl:
      enabled: false
    auth:
      username: "yyyy
      password: "xxxxx"
      source: "martyDev" # This is the name of the database to authenticate against.
      #mechanism: SCRAM-SHA-1

security:
  enabled: true

systemLog:
  #destination: file
  path: /usr/local/var/log/mongodb/mongosql.log
  logAppend: true
  quiet: false
  verbosity: 2
  logRotate: "rename" # "rename"|"reopen"

The title mislead me. For it, I assume it was mongodsql which was not able to connect. For mongodrdl you should use –uri rather than –host.

Sorry for the confusion
I am having a problem connecting to my Atlas cluster with both mongoaql and mongodrdl

I’ve tried the suggestions I’ve read but still getting the error in my log file

See the mongosql.config  contents in an previous reply

It’s not accepting my URI. It’s saying "no such host

Here is my log file:

2022-04-21T16:17:02.165-0400 W SCHEMA     [manager] error initializing schema: unable to execute command: server selection error: context deadline exceeded, current topology: { Type: Unknown, Servers: [{ Addr: marty-dev-cluster.cqjnr.mongodb.net:27015, Type: Unknown, Average RTT: 0, Last error: connection() error occured during connection handshake: dial tcp: lookup marty-dev-cluster.cqjnr.mongodb.net: no such host }, ] }

The host should be a resolvable name

For mongodrdl try this

To connect to a replica set, specify the replSetName and a seed list of set members, as in the following:

/<:port>,<:port>,<…>

Rather than

try
uri : "mongodb+srv://marty-...."

I do not think you should specify the port number. And 27015 is most likely wrong anyway.

Another thing is that

stops you from starting mongosqld because 127.0.1 is not a valid IP address.

Hey @steevej
I looks like the issue is with my marty cluster. I can connect to a different Atlas cluster
Thanks for responding to my call for help!!
