Unable to list documents contained in a certain collection

[Rajesh Koilpillai]

I have stored few files using GridFS API in the "docs" collection of "foo" database. But trying to list files from "docs" collection always comes back with empty result, but if files are stored in the default "fs.files" collection it shows up without any issues. The results are provided below, not sure what I am missing here.

> db.docs.files.find()
{ "_id" : ObjectId("4d4907e4a3b5f08dedfa6b13"), "chunkSize" : NumberLong(26
2144), "length" : NumberLong(6160), "md5" : "8ae9ae9053565d42efed7270332cd1
06", "filename" : null, "contentType" : null, "uploadDate" : ISODate("2011-
02-02T07:29:40.473Z"), "aliases" : null }
{ "_id" : ObjectId("4d4942e7fc48f08d1925d90f"), "chunkSize" : NumberLong(26
2144), "length" : NumberLong(0), "md5" : "d41d8cd98f00b204e9800998ecf8427e"
, "filename" : null, "contentType" : null, "uploadDate" : ISODate("2011-02-
02T11:41:27.627Z"), "aliases" : null }
{ "_id" : ObjectId("4d4942e7fc48f08d1a25d90f"), "chunkSize" : NumberLong(26
2144), "length" : NumberLong(1955), "md5" : "d1041318c79455a4abec8db19831d8
ad", "filename" : null, "contentType" : null, "uploadDate" : ISODate("2011-
02-02T11:41:27.640Z"), "aliases" : null }

I don't think -c option is actually supported in mongofiles. You might
want to file an issue at http://jira.mongodb.org
