Bug#634484: /etc/mongodb.conf ignored

Hi Joep,

Yeap, I can see, where the problem is. The init.d script is actually
forcing the dbpath by running mongodb as

/usr/bin/mongod --dbpath /var/lib/mongodb --logpath 
/var/log/mongodb/mongodb.log --config /etc/mongodb.conf run

I have to dig a bit into history, but I think that this was actually
added to prevent basic misconfigurations. This is definitely veritable
in /etc/default. I'll describe it in README or take value from config
file.

 Also, mysteriously, dpkg -L mongodb outputs only files in
 /usr/share/doc tree. Let me know if I should file another bug report
 for this (or, in what new way I am being an idiot here).

This is actually correct behavior as the actual server resides in
mongodb-server package:

root@bob:~# dpkg -L mongodb-server | wc -l
27
root@bob:~#

Cheers,

Antonin

Bug#634484: /etc/mongodb.conf ignored

2011-07-18 Thread Joep van Delft 
Package: mongodb
Version: 1:1.4.4-3
Severity: normal

mongodb uses database /data/db despite database path being configured
in /etc/mongodb.conf. Obviously, cannot connect to database with
/usr/bin/mongo. 

Using mongod --config /etc/mongodb.conf, or mongod --dbpath DBPATH works as 
expected. 

Also, mysteriously, dpkg -L mongodb outputs only files in /usr/share/doc 
tree. Let me know if I should file another bug report for this (or, in what new 
way I am being an idiot here).
