Installing MongoDB Cpanel

ABELARDO_GONZALEZ · 2021-03-16T12:40:00.626Z

I have updated my mongo-db.repo file with this content
[mongodb-org-3.2]
name=MongoDB Repository
baseurl=https://repo.mongodb.org/yum/redhat/$releasever/mongodb-org/3.2/x86_64/
gpgcheck=1
enabled=1
gpgkey=https://www.mongodb.org/static/pgp/server-3.2.asc
but it still continues showing the same output:
No package mongodb-org available.

¿?

ABELARDO_GONZALEZ · 2021-03-16T12:47:24.103Z

When I paste this url at my browser:
https://repo.mongodb.org/yum/redhat/7/mongodb-org/3.2/x86_64/repodata/repomd.xml

mongodb-org-3.2 | 2.5 kB 00:00:00
No package mongodb-org available.

The same for the 4.4 version.

ABELARDO_GONZALEZ · 2021-03-16T12:52:33.261Z

I highlighted that part of that url:

image1120×266 34.3 KB

Where is configured that variable and which values it contains?

Weird.

Mine, right now.

ABELARDO_GONZALEZ · 2021-03-16T12:57:08.170Z

I have executed the curl statement and it worked!

Could be possible that yum has a bug? ¿?

chris · 2021-03-16T12:58:34.034Z

Very unlikely as I can run it in Centos7 and Redhat 7 fine. Are you still trying this on CPanel. Have you contacted their support?

ABELARDO_GONZALEZ · 2021-03-16T13:00:43.112Z

Yes, but they redirect to your documentation.

ABELARDO_GONZALEZ · 2021-03-16T13:01:16.627Z

Which version of yum have you installed? They could be different.

ABELARDO_GONZALEZ · 2021-03-16T13:02:28.026Z

That variable wasn’t defined. I updated that yum.conf and I have got this result:

chris · 2021-03-16T13:03:10.249Z

Not my documentation

Try it anywhere other than CPanel. I’m sure it will work.

ABELARDO_GONZALEZ · 2021-03-16T13:03:15.669Z

It appears mongodb-org-4.4 | 2.5 kB but I don’t know if it is installed…

How could I check if I can reach your server from my CentOS 7 server, please?

chris · 2021-03-16T13:32:45.556Z

The package you are installing should just be mongodb-org

yum install mongodb-org

If you are wanting a specific release the format is for example:
yum install mongodb-org-4.4.4-1.el7

What does yum search mongodb-org show now ?

Ryan_Quinn · 2021-03-16T14:02:41.161Z

Hey Abelardo! I had a chance to dig into this a bit this morning. The script here is based on the instructions with some modifications mentioned in this thread. This script was tested on a cloud VPS running CentOS 7.4 with cPanel/WHM installed under a trial license. No other modifications were made to the system aside from the activation process for the cPanel/WHM license.

Hi @ABELARDO_GONZALEZ!

Wow, it’s terrible that you’re still having issues after all this time. Do you actually need to run MongoDB on a CentOS7 machine with cPanel?

Personally, I don’t bother with MongoDB on Linux (except for debugging to help others!), I just use Atlas - The free tier is enough for my needs (I have a few databases I regularly use) and you don’t need to provide a credit card for the free tier, just head on over to cloud.mongodb.com - and with a few clicks and waiting about 5-10 minutes for the machines to spin up, you’ll be querying in no time…

ABELARDO_GONZALEZ · 2021-03-18T10:22:54.005Z

Hi there,

Thanks for your piece of advice.

I prefer MongoDB on CentOS 7 since I wouldn’t like to share my personal data in any online platform such as Atlas.

I know I can’t avoid anybody accesses to my data but I prefer not doing it with online platforms.

Best regards.

@ABELARDO_GONZALEZ Absolutely - data privacy is very important! I was very pleased to learn when I joined that, as an employee, I was not allowed to go into any databases without explicit permission - e.g. we have to ask “may I look into your database?” specifically, if it’s needed to debug an issue.

Here’s a link to MongoDB’s privacy policy - this isn’t specifically for you, Abelardo, but just in case other people are worried if MongoDB is using your data…I want to assure them we’re not!
