Support for native install of MongoDB

Open phillpafford opened this issue 11 years ago • 5 comments

Does this or can this work if I installed MongoDB natively and NOT with homebrew or ports? Installed like this: http://codewithbabalu.blogspot.com/2013/04/mongodb-installation-on-mac-os-x.html with some small tweaks

Hi Phil, as long as the mongod binary is in the default system path (not your .profile overrides since MacOSX has its own way to deal with paths when it comes to cocoa apps), it should correctly detect your installation and work. Let me know if it works!

When I echo $PATH I see MongoDB

echo $PATH /usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/local/mongodb/bin

Is this correct?

I've edited like this

sudo vi /etc/paths

I see this in console:

here is how I start Mongo from the Command Line:

sudo /usr/local/mongodb/bin/mongod --config /etc/mongod.conf --fork

Hi Phil, I've took some time to look at your issue in more details. Currently I cannot guarantee that it works with a non standard installation like the one described in your blog post since the code makes assumptions on the way homebrew install its packages. The best thing to do is to install homebrew http://brew.sh/ then mongodb.

The mongodb configuration is located at /usr/local/etc/mongod.conf with homebew. Regards,

I tried to move the config and still not working

sudo mv /etc/mongod.conf  /usr/local/etc/mongod.conf
