Error: collection declared twice

sugoke · March 27, 2016, 1:28pm

Hi,

I have an error message saying

Uncaught Error: There is already a collection named ‘trackings’

But it is declared just once in my JS files (in shared code):

trackings = new Mongo.Collection(“trackings”);

any clue why?

Thnx

Michael

The norm is to write, Trackings = new Mongo.Collection(“trackings”);
which in effect gives you two different labels.

sugoke · March 27, 2016, 1:51pm

I have tried with Trackings = new Mongo.Collection(“trackings”);

but I get the same error.

It’s weird because I have:

trackings = new Mongo.Collection(“trackings”);
stats = new Mongo.Collection(“stats”);

but stats does not create any error.

Search your code for another collection with the name "trackings" - maybe it’s in some package you are depending on? Is it possible that this code is being run twice?

sugoke · March 28, 2016, 5:30pm

No, nowhere else.

I tried to rename trackings in trackings2 everywhere but it doesn’t help.

sashko · March 28, 2016, 5:30pm

Can you put a console.log next to where the collection is defined, and see how many times it prints?

sugoke · March 28, 2016, 5:37pm

yep, here is the console:

=> App running at: http://localhost:3000/
I20160328-19:36:35.383(2)? print

does the (2) mean that it is printed twice?

sashko · March 28, 2016, 6:22pm

No, that’s your time zone. You can check by printing the same message twice in a row.

I dunno, it’s very hard to help at this point without seeing your app code. There must be something missing from your description of the issue.

sugoke · March 28, 2016, 6:38pm

From the Remote debugger I get this. perhaps it is linked?

It looks like a hot code issue no?

Looks like you’re using Meteor < version 1.3 (since your log is showing the meteor.local URL). You might want to consider upgrading to Meteor 1.3 to see if that fixes your issue, since mobile support/functionality has been massively overhauled.

sugoke · March 28, 2016, 6:49pm

When I do meteor update:

This project is already at Meteor 1.2.1, the latest release.

sugoke · March 28, 2016, 6:50pm

Ok I see it is in Beta, so how to update?

hwillson · March 28, 2016, 6:57pm

Actually, it’s not beta anymore - it was officially (and so far quietly) launched about 17 hours ago. I bet there will be an official launch blog post soon.

In the meantime, run:

meteor update --release 1.3

sugoke · March 28, 2016, 6:57pm

great thanks. trying…

sashko · March 28, 2016, 7:03pm

Yep there’s a step between actually publishing the release, and triggering the Meteor tool to believe that it is the latest version. In between we do some final sanity checks and preparation.

sugoke · March 28, 2016, 7:58pm

I have updated to 1.3

Now the app works with meteor run.

But when trying meteor run ios, here is the log:

Is it a known error?
