Cannot connect to mongodb replica remote server

Hi
I create mongoDB replica with docker file

FROM mongo:latest
RUN echo "rs.initiate({'_id':'rs', members: [{'_id':1, 'host':'127.0.0.1:27017'}]});" > "/docker-entrypoint-initdb.d/init_replicaset.js"
RUN echo "12345678" > "/tmp/key.file"
RUN chmod 600 /tmp/key.file
RUN chown 999:999 /tmp/key.file

CMD ["mongod", "--replSet", "rs", "--bind_ip_all", "--keyFile", "/tmp/key.file", "--enableMajorityReadConcern"]

after run, i can’t connect to mongodb server via mongo compass and in log received this message

Hi @Ja7ad,

Personally, I like to create my Single Node Replica Sets with an alias that I have in my ~/.bashrc:

alias mdb='docker run --rm -d -p 27017:27017 -h $(hostname) --name mongo mongo:5.0.9 --replSet=test && sleep 4 && docker exec mongo mongo --eval "rs.initiate();"'

Less complicated in my opinion and works just fine to test stuff quickly and run some tests.

In your case, you are missing a few things. I think because you added the keyFile constaints, this requires Auth activated.

So I updated your Dockerfile like this:

FROM mongo:5.0.9
RUN echo "rs.initiate({'_id':'rs', members: [{'_id':1, 'host':'127.0.0.1:27017'}]});" > "/docker-entrypoint-initdb.d/init_replicaset.js"
RUN echo "12345678" > "/tmp/key.file"
RUN chmod 600 /tmp/key.file
RUN chown 999:999 /tmp/key.file

CMD ["mongod", "--replSet", "rs", "--bind_ip_all", "--auth", "--keyFile", "/tmp/key.file", "--enableMajorityReadConcern"]

And you didn’t provide your docker run command so I made my own version:

docker build -t mabeulux/mdb . && docker run --rm -d -p 27017:27017 -h $(hostname) --name mongo mabeulux/mdb:latest

Finally, I have to create the root user. So I connect like this:

docker exec -it mongo mongosh --quiet

Then I create the root user:

use admin
db.createUser({user: "max", pwd:"secret", roles: ["root"]})

And then I can finally connect using Compass with this URI:

mongodb://max:secret@localhost:27017

So like I said, my solution is a one liner so a bit easier :smiley: !

Cheers,
Maxime.

I found bitnami mongodb image, make easy replica with this image
