New PHP driver 1.2.3 not compatible to MongoDB 3.4 on laravel 4.2

Question

We are using following software in our web app Like...

Laravel 4.2 (PHP framework)
MongoDB(3.4)
PHP Version 5.6 (Ubuntu 14 LTS)

So after updated MongoDB version from 2.6 to 3.4 some API closed.(Coordinate search)

So we found need to upgrade php driver from mongodb site ! (Reference link : http://php.net/manual/en/mongodb.installation.php)

-Necessary changes made in following file

-php.ini (/etc/php5/cli/php.ini) -phpini (/etc/php5/apache2/php.ini) -mongo.ini (/etc/php5/mods-available/mongo.ini)

Changes are in only one line this: extension=mongo.so TO extension=mongodb.so

But following error still coming.. [Mon Jan 23 16:38:58.714244 2017] [:error] [pid 5612] [client 127.0.0.1:60816] PHP Fatal error: Uncaught exception 'ReflectionException' with message 'Class MongoException does not exist' in /var/www/projectfolder/vendor/laravel/framework/src/Illuminate/Exception/Handler.php:310\nStack trace:\n#0

Any one can help ?

Thanks in advance

1]Create index using following MongoQuery

db.user.createIndex( { "location" : "2dsphere" } )

2]Ensure that Index applied or not using following command

db.user.ensureIndex( { "location" : "2dsphere" } )

3]Check following Mongo Query in MongoDB Console.It's working

db.user.find(
    {"location" : {
        "$nearSphere": {
            "$geometry": {
                "type": "Point", "coordinates": [72.513723 , 23.041388] 
            },
        "$maxDistance": 8000,
        "$uniqueDocs": 1
        }
    }
})

After two days investment, i got this solution to resolved this bug by googling and different rnd steps perfomred on MongoDB
