MongoDB deb package.

4 Comments

With some help from people @ #mongodb on irc.freenode.net I have built a MongoDB deb package. You can get it here: http://hash.anthonyw.net/mongodb/mongodb_1.3.1_i386.deb

Edit, just got the x64 version done but haven't been able to test it: http://hash.anthonyw.net/mongodb/mongodb_1.3.1_amd64.deb

64-bit version seems to install okay on Ubuntu 9.10 x86_64, the database server seems to work but the client is giving me the usual libmozjs whinge ... I think it's missing a dependency there, and it doesn't like any of the versions I've got hanging around on this system ... any idea which version you built against? Might be worth including it, libmozjs seems troublesome for other packages too.

Thanks for taking a look a the packages here. There has been a lot of traction to get MongoDB onto stable Debian releases. Right now there are builds for Debian unstable that are far superior to what I have built:

http://packages.debian.org/unstable/database/mongodb

Additionally all the pre-reqs are on this page and this is the suggested method of getting MongoDB onto a Debian based system.

@Nick, sorry for the late reply. If you are on a Debian based system you can try:

http://packages.debian.org/sid/libmozjs2d you need >= 1.9.1
