      Description

      The server does not allow the URI format that we have specified here: http://docs.mongodb.org/manual/reference/connection-string/

      This is a priority for the C++ driver: https://jira.mongodb.org/browse/CXX-2

      It also causes problems in the server: TOOLS-6

      The places that accept "connection strings" or something similar are:

      • sh.addShard(...)
      • --host argument to tools
      • --host argument to mongo shell
      • <db address> argument to mongo shell
      • --configdb option on mongos
      • copydb command between hosts
      • internal mongod implementation of the "moveChunk" command (although I don't know how the bad name could get in here)
