openhab
Silent Crash with MongoDB misconfiguration
I recently installed openhab-cloud and I'm trying to use a MongoDB Atlas cluster.
I'm using node v7.10.1 and the output from terminal when running app.js is:
❯ sudo node app.js
Option polling duration is not valid. Please refer to the README.
zsh: exit 1 sudo node app.js
as for the log:

There are no other errors.
One thing that perhaps is the issue is the unusual mongoDB address. I've tried using [servername].gcp.mongodb.net in the configuration file but this creates the error:
2019-06-12 08:23:08:088 error: openHAB-cloud: Error while connecting from openHAB-cloud to mongodb: MongoError: getaddrinfo ENOTFOUND [servername].gcp.mongodb.net [servername].gcp.mongodb.net:27017
which is odd as I am able to connect fine from the mongo command line:
mongo "mongodb+srv://[servername].gcp.mongodb.net/openhab" --username [username]
Changing the configuration to include the mongodb+srv:// scheme removes the error message, but then results in the (likely invalid) address in the log above (though I would still expect it to produce an error message).
Note that from the command line, having mongodb:// does not work either. I have tried modifying system/mongoconnect.js to use the mongodb+srv:// scheme, but running app.js crashes silently without producing any log or any error message (and I am not familiar enough with Node.js to debug this).
