com.mongodb.CommandFailureException while connecting to AWS DocumentDB

Question

I'm trying to connect to AWS DocumentDB from java application. I think I'm able to connect to cluster, not sure... Because earlier I was getting connection timeout and now I'm not. But now I'm getting the below error

java file

MongoClient mongoClient = new MongoClient(clientURI);
            DB db = mongoClient.getDB("giftRegistry");
            System.out.println(db);
            System.out.println(db.isAuthenticated());
            CommandResult commandResult = db.getStats();
            System.out.println(commandResult);

Getting error in CommandResult line.

Error

com.mongodb.CommandFailureException: { "serverUsed" : "giftregistry-db.c3ekl0nftuic.us-east-2.docdb.amazonaws.com:27017" , "ok" : 0 , "errmsg" : "Unsupported mechanism" , "code" : 301}

Googled up this, but found nothing.

If there is someone who can help, that would be appreciated..!!

DB db = mongoClient.getDB("giftRgistry") might be giftRegistry?? is that typo or the reason of the error? — Daeho Ro

I have resolved the problem myself. Earlier I was using mongo-java-driver-2.12.3.jar, And I was getting error message:unsupported mechanism. Then I googled up about that and found that SCRAM-SHA-1 is an authentication and authorization mechanism. The MongoDB 2.x series did not support SCRAM-SHA-1 and there’s no way to make it work. And, SCRAM-SHA-1 is enabled by default in MongoDB versions beginning with the 3.0 series. So I replaced the jar with mongo-java-driver-3.5.0.jar and It worked out for me
