This is my mongoosejs schema. I set name unique to false, but this is what i get: MongoError: insertDocument :: caused by :: 11000 E11000 duplicate key error index:
Go to the DB(MongoDB)--> Collections --> Your_Table --> Indexes --> Right Click on the Unique Field --> Exit Index --> Uncheck the Unique field --> Save
MongoDB Compass
If you are using MongoDB Compass then you can choose your document and then click on Indexes
and delete the index which you want to delete.
Mongoose won't modify existing indexes, so you'll need to drop that index in the MongoDB shell and then let Mongoose recreate it using the definition in your schema:
> db.images.dropIndex('name_1');
