Does anybody experience an issue with s3cmd and mongoimport after having upgraded to mongodb 3.0.2? I am receiving the SCRAM-SHA1 / SASL error but have no clue how I can fix this? The connection from and to s3 is still unaffected and working properly.

I was untill recently successfully using s3cmd to pipe the output from mongodb 2.6: 

s3cmd get s3://filename - | mongoimport -d testdb -c testcollection

which is now returning:

"Failed: error connecting to db server: server returned error on SASL authentication step: Authentication failed."

Thanks in advance

Try using the --authenticationDatabase parameter to direct the mongoimport tool to the database that holds the user’s credentials. Currently it fails to authenticate since it can't find the location of those credentials.

The full command should look something like this:

s3cmd get s3://filename - | mongoimport -d testdb -c testcollection -u <user_name> -p <password> --authenticationDatabase admin

This is all true to version 2.4 and up of the mongoimport tool, so make sure you have an updated version.
