MongoDB $near doesn't work inside $and operator

[m0g]

Hello,

I'm trying to do a geospatial query within an $and operator on the server side:

var query = { $and: [
  {
    fromLoc: { $near : { 
      $geometry: { 
        type : "Point" ,
        coordinates: fromCoords
      },
      $maxDistance : 50,
      $minDistance : 10
    }}
  },
  {
    toLoc: { $near : { 
      $geometry: { 
        type : "Point" ,
        coordinates: toCoords
      },
      $maxDistance : 50,
      $minDistance : 10
    }}
  }
]};

return Lifts.find(query);

Problem is that Mongo is telling me that it can't find any special indices 2d (needs index) 2dsphere (needs index)

I've google around, and it seems that it's a bug from MongoDB 2.4, and that it has been corrected in newer version. However since Mongo is bundled with Meteor, I have no idea how I can update mongo itself.

Thanks

You can run current versions of Meteor against your own Mongo 2.6 server and just about everything will work (some upserts won't, see #2278), but the default server used by the dev mode runner will still be 2.4. I am in the process of upgrading the default used by Meteor to 2.6; this is being tracked in #2036.
