yum install mongodb 3.2 fails

Question

I am trying to install mongodb 3.2 on a CentOS 7 machine and facing issues in locating the packages.

I have updated the repo file as per the documentation:

Answer 1

I know this issue is old and more than 2 years but I have received this error recently in Mongo DB 4.0

I have checked my yum.conf by

 vi /etc/yum.conf yum.conf

and there was one line with the following.

exclude=courier* dovecot* exim* filesystem httpd* mod_ssl* **mongodb-org,mongodb-org-server,mongodb-org-shell,mongodb-org-mongos,mongodb-org-tools** mydns* nsd* p0f php* proftpd* pure-ftpd* spamassassin* squirrelmail*

Removed the

mod_ssl* mongodb-org,mongodb-org-server,mongodb-org-shell,mongodb-org-mongos,mongodb-org-tools

and changed it to

exclude=courier* dovecot* exim* filesystem httpd* mod_ssl* mydns* nsd* p0f php* proftpd* pure-ftpd* spamassassin* squirrelmail*

This has fixed my issue and should fix yours.

Answer 2

@nikolai.serdiuk seems to be correct. The baseurl provided in Mongo's Documentation doesn't seem to be functional. Replace that step with this instead (1):

yum-config-manager --add-repo http://repo.mongodb.org/yum/redhat/mongodb-org.repo

and then continue on with (2):

sudo yum install -y mongodb-org

Hope this helps.

Answer 3

This command

yum-config-manager --add-repo http://repo.mongodb.org/yum/redhat/mongodb-org.repo

will create the repo as above suggested. Then it will work.

Answer 4

Check and remove old version mongodb

yum list installed mongodb.x86_64
yum remove mongodb.x86_64

It helps

Answer 5

first you have to create repo in your redhat system.

cd /etc/yum.repos.d/mongodb-org.repo

and Enter i, and copy-past this.

[mongodb-org-4.0]
name=MongoDB Repository
baseurl=https://repo.mongodb.org/yum/redhat/$releasever/mongodb-org/4.0/x86_64/
gpgcheck=1
enabled=1
gpgkey=https://www.mongodb.org/static/pgp/server-4.0.asc

and save it like- enter ctrl + : and enter : + qw and run this command

yum install mongodb-org

Answer 6

I figured out what was my problem. It was in my yum.conf file

exclude=mongodb-org,mongodb-org-server,mongodb-org-shell,mongodb-org-mongos,mongodb-org-tools

Once I commented out this line from yum.conf, everything went fine.
