I had MongoDB running fine on Ubuntu 20.04 but after adding replication options to mongod.conf, the config file seems to be being rejected. This results in errors because mongo attempts to write to the default storage path, which doesn't exist.
Here is my conf file:
# mongod.conf
# for documentation of all options, see:
# http://docs.mongodb.org/manual/reference/configuration-options/
# Where and how to store data.
storage:
dbPath: /var/lib/mongodb
journal:
enabled: true
# engine:
# wiredTiger:
# where to write logging data.
systemLog:
destination: file
logAppend: true
path: /var/log/mongodb/mongod.log
# network interfaces
net:
port: 27018
bindIp: 127.0.0.1
# how the process runs
processManagement:
timeZoneInfo: /usr/share/zoneinfo
#security:
#operationProfiling:
replication:
replSetName: rs0
#sharding:
## Enterprise-Only Options:
#auditLog:
#snmp:
And here are the errors:
