Installing MongoDB on Ubuntu

Install MongoDB
1
Import the public key used by the package management system.

The Ubuntu package management tools (i.e dpkg and apt) ensure package consistency and authenticity by requiring that Dist Ributors sign packages with GPG keys. Issue the following command to import the MongoDB public GPG Key:

sudo apt-key adv--keyserver hkp://keyserver.ubuntu.com:80--recv 7F0CEB10

2
Create a list file for MongoDB.

Create the/etc/apt/sources.list.d/mongodb-org-3.0.list list file using the following command:

echo "Deb Http://repo.mongodb.org/apt/ubuntu" $ (LSB_RELEASE-SC) "/mongodb-org/3.0 Multiverse" | sudo tee/etc/apt/sources.list.d/mongodb-org-3.0.list

3
Reload Local Package database.

Issue the following command to reload the local package database:

sudo apt-get update

4
Install the MongoDB packages.

You can install either the latest stable version of MongoDB or a specific version of MongoDB.
Install the latest stable version of MongoDB.

Issue the following command:

sudo apt-get install-y mongodb-org

Tip: If not successful, you can remove the command's-y. sudo apt-get install mongodb-org

Install a specific release of MongoDB.

Specify each component package individually and append the version number to the package name, as in the following example :

sudo apt-get install-y mongodb-org=3.0.0 mongodb-org-server=3.0.0 mongodb-org-shell=3.0.0 mongodb-org-mongos=3.0.0 mongodb-org-tools=3.0.0

Tip: If not successful, you can remove the command's-y.

sudo apt-get install mongodb-org=3.0.0 mongodb-org-server=3.0.0 mongodb-org-shell=3.0.0 mongodb-org-mongos=3.0.0 mongodb-org-tools=3.0.0

Pin a specific version of MongoDB.

Although can specify any available version of MongoDB, Apt-get would upgrade the packages when a newer version becomes Available. To prevent unintended upgrades, pin the package. To pin the version of MongoDB at the currently installed version, issue the following command sequence:

echo "Mongodb-org hold" | sudo dpkg--set-selections
echo "Mongodb-org-server hold" | sudo dpkg--set-selections
echo "Mongodb-org-shell hold" | sudo dpkg--set-selections
echo "Mongodb-org-mongos hold" | sudo dpkg--set-selections
echo "Mongodb-org-tools hold" | sudo dpkg--set-selections

Versions of the MongoDB packages before 2.6 use a different repo location. Refer to the version of the documentation appropriate for your MongoDB version.

4
Restart MongoDB.

Issue The following command to restart Mongod:

sudo service mongod restart
