MongoDB for Debian
|
|
------------------
|
|
|
|
Database at different location from upstream
|
|
|
|
To be consistent with the Debian Policy, the mongodb-server package puts
|
|
the databases under the /var/lib/mongodb directory instead of what
|
|
upstream uses in its documentation (namely, /data/db).
|
|
|
|
You can change this on your installation by editing the configuration file
|
|
/etc/mongodb.conf in the dbpath directive.
|
|
|
|
Binds only to localhost
|
|
|
|
As mongo needs some tuning to become secure, it binds to localhost by
|
|
default. You can change this behavior in /etc/mongodb.conf by
|
|
editing/removing/commenting out bind_ip line.
|
|
|
|
Why only for x86 and amd64?
|
|
|
|
The mongodb server depends on both little-endianness and unaligned memory
|
|
access, which I believe means it can only work on i386 and amd64. We believe
|
|
that the mongodb will be useful even it is not available for all Debian
|
|
supported platforms.
