The MongoCursorException class

Introduction

Caused by accessing a cursor incorrectly or a error receiving a reply.

If there is an error receiving a reply, there will be a more specific error message to help diagnose the problem:

• could not establish db connection

  A database reply could not be recieved because a connection with the database could not be established.

• no db response

  This may not even be an error, for example, the database command "shutdown" returns no response. However, if you were expecting a response, this means the database didn't give one.

• bad response length: %d, max: %d, did the db assert?

  This means that the database said that its response was greater than 4Mb or less than 0. Generally, a number greater than 5Mb should be reported to the developers as a potential database bug (max response length is 4Mb). A response of less than 0 often means a database assertion occured.

• incomplete response

  Occurs if the database response is malformed.

• [WSA ]error getting database response: errstr

  "errstr" is an io error reported directly from the C socket subsystem. On Windows, is prefixed with "WSA".
