MongoDB Learning (1)-Installing MongoDB in a Windows system

Overview

This article mainly describes the method of installing MongoDB on Windows systems.

MongoDB Official website: http://www.mongodb.org/, the latest version is 2.6.7.

Attention:

Starting with version 2.2, MongoDB does not support Windows XP. Please use the latest version of Windows to use the latest version of MongoDB.

If you are running any version of Windows Server R2 or Windows 7, install the hotfix to fix a problem with a memory-mapped file on Windows.

Patch: Official 360 Cloud Disk (access password: 5E1E)

Download installation

The official website provides 32-bit and 64-bit zip-free compression packages and MSI installation packages. Zip download after the extraction to the development of the directory can be used, MSI Click to run, there is no particular need to pay attention to. Both installation is very simple, we need to choose the appropriate version according to their own operating system to download the installation, not mentioned here.

The difference between 32-bit and 64-bit is that 32-bit MongoDB can only hold 2G of data, and 64-bit is unlimited.

I use the operating system is Windows 7 X64,mongodb is the latest 2.6.7 64-bit compression package, the decompression path is D:\MONGODB.

Create a database path

Before you start the MongoDB service, you must manually create a folder that holds the database files, otherwise it cannot be started.

It is known from the error message that because the default database path DBPath (\data\db\) does not exist, we need to create this directory or specify the existing directory in--dbpath.

This article uses the default path to demonstrate, the command to create the \data\db\ directory, the directory location is the root of the MongoDB drive letter, that is, D:\data\db.

D:\mongodb>MD \data\db\

Tips: about the cmd command prompt, recommend a utility gadget: The Windows folder Right-click menu adds "Command Prompt". Reg, refer to the article "add Command Prompt" to the file right-click menu in the Windows system A command prompt window for a directory can be accessed very quickly and easily.

Start MongoDB Service

If the data path is the default \data\db, in the Command Prompt window, start the MongoDB service via the Mongod.exe or Mongod command.

D:\mongodb\bin>mongod
mongod --help for help and startup options

If the data path is a different path, you need to increase the--dbpath parameter to specify the path. Note that there are spaces in the path, you need to enclose the entire directory in double quotation marks, or you will get an error.

D:\mongodb\bin\mongod.exe--dbpath D:\mongodb\data\db

from the boot information can be learned that MongoDB by default on port 27017 waiting for the connection, we can access the browser through the "http://localhost:27017" to view the relevant information.

To add a MongoDB service to a Windows service

In order not to use MongoDB every time through the CD, Mongod and other commands cumbersome start-up service, we can add it to the Windows service, the specific command is as follows:

D:\mongodb\bin>mongod--logpath=d:\mongodb\logs\mongod.log--install--servicename MongoDB

which

--logpath: Specify the file path to save the log

--install: Installing Windows Services

--servicename: Setting MongoDB service Name

After running, we can open the Windows Service management interface to see the "MongoDB" service, and then how to set the trust we all know,:-).
