Bug Report Can't delete collection with specific name

[yjn140]

I found that mongodb compass can't delete collection with specific name.

I created a collection called cmccjx_phone_realname_identityno_.._2010

I think it is the problem of this..

When I want to delete it in the graphical interface, he prompts that the collection is empty

Other manifestations are that in the UI interface, clicking or double-clicking the collection does not respond. command line execution error

$ db.cmccjx_phone_realname_identityno_.._2010.drop

Error: clone(t={}){const r=t.loc||{};return e({loc:new Position("line"in r?r.line:this.loc.line,"column"in r?r.column:...<omitted>...)} could not be cloned.

I execute this command to manually delete

$ db["cmccjx_phone_realname_identityno_.._2010"].drop()

Hey, thank you for reporting the issue. Here is the ticket you can use to track the progress on this: COMPASS-6806

Could it be because I have put a dot in the collection name? not good practice

[alenakhineika]

This is actually two successive dots that cause that. For collection names, this is ok to have a dot in their names. We will investigate what fails for the two of them.
