      The JS parsing of the mongodb connection string is incorrect:

      > var mongoHost = 'mongodb://kaloianm-ubuntu:12345/?connectTimeoutMS=30000&socketTimeoutMS=30000';
      
      > mongoHost
      mongodb://kaloianm-ubuntu:12345/?connectTimeoutMS=30000&socketTimeoutMS=30000
      
      > var mongo = new Mongo(mongoHost);
      2016-02-17T16:17:10.121-0500 E QUERY    [thread1] Error: Unknown exception :
      @(shell):1:17
      

      The reason why it fails is that the regular expression used by the MongoURI parser treats the entire string as the hostname.
