After the update looks like Mongo cannot start using the standard service.

Hi Team and thanks for the update.

We’re encountering an issue after update. If we stop the service and launch mongo with

mongod -f /etc/mongod.conf

It works.

The only error we can see from logs in case of starting with service is

{“t”:{“$date”:“2023-03-01T10:00:02.645+01:00”},“s”:“I”, “c”:“NETWORK”, “id”:4333208, “ctx”:“ReplicaSetMonitor-TaskExecutor”,“msg”:“RSM host selection timeout”,“attr”:{“replicaSet”:“rs0”,“error”:“FailedToSatisfyReadPreference: Could not find host matching read preference { mode: "primary" } for set rs0”}}

And we get Connection Refused.

Looks like adding the following to the service file made it working again.

ExecStartPre=/usr/bin/mkdir -p /var/run/mongodb
ExecStartPre=/usr/bin/chown mongod:mongod /var/run/mongodb
ExecStartPre=/usr/bin/chmod 0755 /var/run/mongodb
PermissionsStartOnly=true
PIDFile=/var/run/mongodb/mongod.pid
Type=forking

The strange thing is that the mongo update changes the Service File.

Starting from the 5.0.15 mongo upgrade changes the systemd service file and break mongo
#5

Can you please share with us what was changed?

I do not see how adding

would help the start up following an update. These are for new install of for installations that were tempered with. If you are updating then your directories and the permissions should already be there and correct.

I am not too sure about

#6

Is it normal that an upgrade modifies the service file without any advise?

Without those parameters our mongo instance cannot start.

#7

I would say yes since an update might need to setup new directories, new resources or even have new dependencies from other services… I keep my /etc under git so I know and document what is happening.

Like I mentioned I do not know about PermissionsStartOnly, PIDFile and Type but I do not see how the following would stop an update to restart.

#8

I honestly don’t know. But if we don’t restore the previous service file it doesn’t start with the default after upgrade.
