Mongoid/RubyDriver ContinueOnError not working

[Daniel Schlegel]

Hi 

I try to do inserts in monogo with mongoid. unfortunately the continue_on_error option does not work.

Situation:

There is an index on :name

documents = [{:name => "First"}, {:name => "Second"}]

# following line works like expected.

MyCollection.collection.insert(documents, :continue_on_error => true, :safe => false)

# => First and Second in DB

documents = [{:name => "First"}, {:name => "Third"}]

MyCollection.collection.insert(documents, :continue_on_error => true, :safe => false)

# => Third not in DB.

i don't get an exception while inserting, but it seames, that the batch stop it's processing when error occured.

Thanks for your help.

Hi

This seems to work for me:

> db['things'].create_index("name", :unique => true)

> documents = [{:name => "First"}, {:name => "Second"}]

> db['things'].insert(documents, :continue_on_error => true, :safe => false)

in the mongo shell:

> db.things.find()

{ "_id" : ObjectId("501a9cf13005c82ac9000001"), "name" : "First" }

{ "_id" : ObjectId("501a9cf13005c82ac9000002"), "name" : "Second" }

> documents = [{:name => "First"}, {:name => "Third"}]

> db['things'].insert(documents, :continue_on_error => true, :safe => false)

in the mongo shell:

> db.things.find()

{ "_id" : ObjectId("501a9cf13005c82ac9000001"), "name" : "First" }

{ "_id" : ObjectId("501a9cf13005c82ac9000002"), "name" : "Second" }

{ "_id" : ObjectId("501a9d173005c82ac9000004"), "name" : "Third" }

You shouldn't be getting an exception if you use :safe => false

What version of Mongoid are you using?

Hi Emily

Thank you very much. I tried on a different machine now and there it worked. 

Now i found out, that on the maschine i tried an old mongodb server but new client was running. 

Sorry for wasting your time. this was my fault.
