Description
I was using a custom solution running MongoDB in the Backend on Ubuntu 18.04 and recently decided to try out an
apt-get update
apt-get dist-upgrade
I got quickly reminded why doing such operations require a bit more planning ahead instead of the just do it way of thinking.
systemctl status mongod
● mongod.service loaded failed failed MongoDB Database Server
cat /var/log/mongodb/mongod.log
“ctx”:“initandlisten”,“msg”:“Storage engine to use detected by data files”,“attr”:{“dbpath”:"/var/lib/mongodb", Functions"storageEngine":“mmapv1”}}
Cannot start server with an unknown storage engine: mmapv1"}}
Luckily in IT, there’s always a solution for everything and a chance to reverse engineer what happened…
