Error: Meteor does not currently support objects other than ObjectID as ids

[shilman80]

After trying out dumb-collections in a bigger app and running into issues, I've implemented a stripped down reproduction of the error (see README for details):

https://github.com/shilman80/dumb-collections-spike/

I'm sure it's related to not using server methods, as in dumb-collections-demo. However, I do not want the client to be able to update the collection at all, so I just simulated a server process updating the collection in Mongo.

Your help is very much appreciated.

How did you populate the server database? If it was outside of Meteor
(i.e. in Mongo shell or with mongorestore), then that could be an issue
that I hadn't thought of. This is purely based on the error text.

I'll have a play in a bit to see if I can shed any further light.

Ignore that - I'm looking at your repo and I can see you're doing it on
server startup. Apologies...

Thanks for the repo - I've just opened an issue on it so that we can discuss the details of that exact case there. If it uncovers a specific issue then I'll track it here.
