copied!<p>I am assuming you run Meteor on Linux or Mac. If this is not the case, the code might not work.</p> <p>the most obvious reason is that the mongo database does not contain any <code>posts</code> documents. What is the output of:</p> <pre><code>$ mongo > use autana_dev > db.posts.find({}).count() </code></pre> <p>If the output is not <code>null</code> or <code>0</code> you might need to connect with a username and password.</p> <pre><code>export MONGO_URL="mongodb://user:password@localhost:27017/autana_dev </code></pre> <p>if this does not help, I'd try adding a bit of logging to find out if posts are not sent or not received:</p> <pre><code>Meteor.publish('posts', function() { console.log("returning " + Posts.find({}).count() + " posts"); return Posts.find(); }); </code></pre> <p>and if the number is greater than <code>0</code> on the client</p> <pre><code>var postsHandle = Meteor.subscribe('posts'); Template.main.posts = function() { if( postsHanlde.ready() ){ console.log("I have " + Posts.find({}).count() + " posts on the client"); return Posts.find(); } }; </code></pre> <p>the condition <code>if( postsHanlde.ready() )</code> ensures you do not try to show the posts before they have arrived.</p> <p>If you have documents in your mongodb but nothing gets selected in Meteor, maybe your mongodb is not working correctly. </p> <p>It is fairly easy to check that by replacing the mongodb with an online solution. Create a free account on <a href="https://mongolab.com" rel="nofollow">mongolab</a> and change your MONGO_URL to the one given by the mongolab console. Insert some posts there and test again.</p> <p>If you still do not get any documents, then ...</p> <p>That is all I can think of from your input. Hope it helped.</p>
