Question

In mongo db

> show dbs
admin   (empty)
data    23.9423828125GB
local   (empty)

I have a table with an index:

> db.XXX.count();
80089670

C#:

voteCol.EnsureIndex("({ YYY:1 })");

When I am doing a query with the C# driver:

MongoCollection<BsonDocument> voteCol = database.GetCollection<BsonDocument>("XXX");
var query = new QueryDocument("YYY", DataUtils.getItemInPollIdList());
MongoCursor<BsonDocument> cursor =      voteCol.Find(query).SetSortOrder(SortBy.Descending("ZZZ")).SetLimit(10).SetSkip(20);

The execution time for this part of the code is close to 0.

Then when I am trying to get the size of the cursor

cursor.Size();

I get a timeout.

Unable to read data from the transport connection: A connection
attempt failed because the connected party did not properly respond
after a period of time, or established connection failed because
connected host has failed to respond.

In Mongo log

Mon Aug 22 10:08:50 [conn9] query data.XXX ntoreturn:1 reslen:36
nscanned:80089670 { YYY: “1482092” } nreturned:0 48935ms

What can it be? When the query is really executed? Why I can’t get the results?

Edit 1: Added new index

Even with the new index – same issue:
Mongo shell:

> printjson(db.XXX.findOne({YYY:"1517077"}));

MongoLog

Answer 1

I did a mistake – all is case sensitive in mongoDb.

I added an index on yyy instead of YYY.

No warning message even if I have nothing named yyy in the table and the index was created successfully :(.

I recreated an index on the correct column name. Everything is fast now.
