Using option array('unique'=>1) can not successfully ensureIndex. Actually, the mongo offer the 'sparse' option to work for this situation(http://docs.mongodb.org/manual/core/indexes/#synopsis) Cited from the above like "You can combine the sparse index option with the unique indexes option so that mongod will reject documents that have duplicate values for a field, but that ignore documents that do not have the key." And this option is already available in php, but the documentation does not list this option Actual result: -------------- {"v":1, "key":{"reply.id":1}, "unique":true, "ns":"XXXXX.designComment", "sparse":1, "name":"reply_id_1"} The above proves the 'sparse' option is available in php ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=63183&edit=1
