odata-server: error in sample servers, tutorial (no method 'collectionNames') #210

Open davidcalloway opened 9 years ago

davidcalloway commented 9 years ago

I started a new project with odata-server and followed the tutorial here: http://jaydata.org/blog/how-to-set-up-a-nodejs-odata-endpoint-with-odata-server

After following the tutorial, I get the following error on the server side:

TypeError: Object [object Object] has no method 'collectionNames'
    at ./node_modules/odata-server/node_modules/jaydata/lib/Types/StorageProviders/mongoDB/mongoDBStorageProvider.js:80:32

After this, I tried both of the included sample servers as well, and got the same error output when visiting the URLs http://localhost:52999/Northwind.svc (for the northwind.js server), although I can still get XML output in the browser from that and http://localhost:52999/Northwind.svc/$metadata

When trying the newsreader.js server, I get a thrown exception and the server process exits. (Same error and stack trace).

Same happens at my site. Is there a workaround?

Not sure if there is one. I've abandoned using odata-server myself for my particular project.

Thank you for your answer. After spending almost the whole last day with the jaydata odata server my impression was that jaydata does not really support / document it. So I will give the simple-odata-server (http://www.janblaha.net/blog/odata-server-on-nodejs) a chance now. The only disadvantage is that this module does not support entity relationships which I absolutely need. Maybe I can implement them.

mongodb@2.0.27 -> use v1.4.9, odata-server is only supporting the old interface.
