Error when upgrading for 1.6.4 to 1.8.0 with sharding

[James Pharaoh]

Hi,

I am having a problem when upgrading from 1.6.4 to 1.8.0. I am using a
sharding setup on 64 bit Linux with two shards of two servers each.
The problem goes away if I use the mongos from 1.6.4 so the problem
would seem to be there.

Basically I can't see any databases apart from config. Trying to use
them gives me an error. The balancer is also showing an error in the
logs. For example:

Trying to view the collections in a DB that exists but is not listed
by show dbs:

james@xenon:/var/log/mongodb$ mongo
MongoDB shell version: 1.8.0
connecting to: test
> show dbs
config 0.1875GB
> use metrics
switched to db metrics
> show collections
Thu Mar 31 13:52:36 uncaught exception: error: { "$err" : "assertion
s/shard.cpp:231", "code" : 0 }
>

Any ideas please? As I mentioned, this works fine if I use the 1.6.4
mongos with the 1.8.0 mongod instances.

Thanks,
James

Can you send db.printShardingStatus()
I think the shard entries must be a little off.

This is the problem.
1.8 requires the string name.

So should change those to
setname/server1,server2

[James Pharaoh]

How am I supposed to change that?

I can find commands to add and remove shards but not to change one in place...

Actually I've worked this out...

db.shards.update({_id:"27020"},{$set:{host:"27020/gold.private:27020,silver.private:27020"}})

Seems to be ok now, thanks.

Shouldn't the failure in this case be a little more descriptive?

James

[Eliot Horowitz]

Yes - definitely can be more descriptive or caught earlier.
Can you add a case @ http://jira.mongodb.org/

[James Pharaoh]

Ok done

http://jira.mongodb.org/browse/SERVER-2879

I put a comment on here as well...
