Mongoimport cannot import dates that mongoexport outputs

    • Type: Icon: Bug Bug

    • Affects Version/s: 3.0.8, 3.2.9, 3.3.12
    • Component/s: mongoexport, mongoimport
    • None

      The examples try to roundtrip a document with multiple date fields. Attached is a dump of the test.date collection since minDate and maxDate cannot be created in the mongo shell.

      {
             	"_id" : ObjectId("573debafd3a32e75b0d56bf1"),
             	"maxDate" : ISODate("292278994-08-17T07:12:56.808Z"),
             	"minDate" : ISODate("-292275055-05-16T16:47:02.192Z"),

             	"smallDate" : ISODate("1901-12-13T20:45:52Z")
      }
      

      Roundtripping using mongoexport/mongoimport 2.6 only maxDate is preserved:

      Roundtripping using mongoexport/mongoimport 3.0, 3.2, and 3.3 cause parse errors:
