3.8. MongoDB Failures
If MongoDB is not configured correctly, you will experience failures with the OpenShift client tools. If this is the case, verify your MongoDB configuration.
Use the following command to verify that the MongoDB service is running:
# service mongod status
If the
mongod service is not running, look in the /var/log/mongodb/mongodb.log file for information. Look for duplicate configuration lines, which cause problems with MongoDB, and result in the multiple_occurences error message. Verify that there are no duplicate configuration lines in the /etc/mongodb.conf file to enable the mongod service to start.
For testing a MongoDB connection, look in the
/etc/openshift/broker.conf file for MongoDB configuration details such as database host, port, name, user, and password.
Example 3.1. Example MongoDB Configuration
MONGO_HOST_PORT="localhost:27017" MONGO_USER="mongouser" MONGO_PASSWORD="mongopassword" MONGO_DB="openshift_broker" MONGO_SSL="false"
With the
mongod service running, use the following command to connect to the database, replacing configuration settings accordingly:
# mongo localhost:27017/openshift_broker -u mongouser -p mongopassword
The MongoDB command prompt is displayed.
