GAE unable to look up SRV record for mongodb atlas instance

问题

I have an instance of mongodb running on Atlas and a Spring Boot application running on GAE trying to access this database. I have no problem running it locally but when running on GAE I see this error in the logs.

com.mongodb.MongoConfigurationException: Unable to look up SRV record for host xyz-abc-delta-james.gcp.mongodb.net

This is my spring boot configuration for mongodb

spring.data.mongodb.authentication-database=admin
spring.data.mongodb.field-naming-strategy=org.springframework.data.mapping.model.CamelCaseAbbreviatingFieldNamingStrategy
spring.data.mongodb.uri=mongodb+srv://<user>:<password>@xyz-abc-delta-james.gcp.mongodb.net/test?retryWrites=true

I tried to find something in the GAE docs but there is no trace of this kind of error.

Failed to instantiate [com.mongodb.MongoClient]: Factory method 'mongo' threw exception; nested exception is com.mongodb.MongoConfigurationException: Unable to look up SRV record for host xyz-abc-delta-james.gcp.mongodb.net

Has anyone come across such a thing? Could this be a network restriction by GAE?

Thanks!

NB: I have already posted this on serverfault but didn't get any responses.

Apparently GAE doesn't support the latest (3.6x and up version) format of the mogodb uri, everything worked seamlessly after I switched to the legacy (3.4x and up version) of the uri representation which is quite long.

spring.data.mongodb.uri=mongodb://<user>:<password>@xyz-abc-delta-james.gcp.mongodb.net:27017,foo-bar-shard-00-01-tlxzf.gcp.mongodb.net:27017,foo-bar-shard-00-02-tlxzf.gcp.mongodb.net:27017/test?ssl=true&replicaSet=foo-bar-shard-0&authSource=admin&retryWrites=true

Since Spring boot has an internal dependency on the 3.6x version, I had to manually add a mongodb dependency for the 3.4 version.

    <dependency>
        <groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId>
        <artifactId>spring-boot-starter-data-mongodb</artifactId>
        <exclusions>
            <exclusion>
                <groupId>org.mongodb</groupId>
                <artifactId>mongo-java-driver</artifactId>
            </exclusion>
        </exclusions>
    </dependency>
    <dependency>
        <groupId>org.mongodb</groupId>
        <artifactId>mongo-java-driver</artifactId>
        <version>3.4.3</version>
    </dependency>

I've found a solution:

You have to unlock the default outgoing TCP port (the default for MongoDB Atlas is 27017) in your Google Cloud Console.

More precisely: in the section Network >> VPC Network >> Firewall just add a new rule for mongo traffic.
