Installing MongoDB on Ubuntu 18.04 32bits

Ubuntu 18.04 Desktop
MongoDB Community Edition 3.2.19


Goals:

  • Install a mongodb server in Ubuntu 18.04 32bits.

Install:

  • curl -O https://fastdl.mongodb.org/linux/mongodb-linux-i686-3.2.19.tgz
  • tar -zxvf mongodb-linux-i686-3.2.19.tgz
  • mkdir -p ~/mongodb
  • cp -R -n mongodb-linux-i686-3.2.19/ mongodb
  • export PATH=~/mongodb/bin:$PATH
  • Starting MongoDB with previous config file and legacy storage engine. This way the databases from older version still active and with data already saved.
  • sudo ~/mongodb/bin/mongod --storageEngine=mmapv1 --config /etc/mongodb.conf

Testing:
Troubleshooting:

  • Error: solved Cannot start server. The default storage engine 'wiredTiger' is not available with this build of mongod.
    • force mmapv1 engine with option mongod --storageEngine=mmapv1
