I'm using Logstash 1.5.2
trying to insert datas in MongoDB with logstash-output-mongodb
It works well only when my parsed logs doesn't contain arrays, when the JSON contains array it generates an exception.

Failed to send event to MongoDB
undefined methodbson_type

Any idea to solve this issue please ? Thanks !

The timestamp is in every type i store in MongoDB, and it works for most of them, the problem occurs only for 2 types which contain arrays. That's why i think it's not related to the timestamp - Fares
Bug reports for the logstash mongodb plugin and for logstash itself have been created. Seems to be a known issue. github.com/logstash-plugins/logstash-output-mongodb/issues/9 github.com/elastic/logstash/issues/3482 - Kristinn Örn Sigurðsson

I have this same error when logstash mongoldb output configuration has 

isodate => true

I have no arrays in my data. Just Nginx access-log data. When I output my data with 

stdout { codec => rubydebug }

@timestamp looks like this

{
"@timestamp" => "2015-09-16T18:49:11.347Z",
}

Main issues is that when I output this to mongodb, the data is inserted as string with quotes escaped like this: 

"@timestamp": "\"2015-09-16T18:14:06.178Z\"",

I'm using logstash 1.5.4 and mongodb 3.0.6, and the error I'm getting is

:exception=>#<NoMethodError: undefined method `bson_type' for "2015-09-16T18:33:52.474Z":LogStash::Timestamp>, :backtrace=>["/opt/logstash/vendor/bundle/jruby/1.9/gems/bson-3.2.4-java/lib/bson/hash.rb:44:in `to_bson'", [...]

I haven't found any solution for this yet.
