Configure MongoDB
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
.. warning::
If this is a fresh setup and you have already set up PostgreSQL, you
will not need this step.
First, install MongoDB. On a DEB-based system run::
sudo apt-get install mongodb
on a RPM-based system, run::
yum install mongodb-server
After installing MongoDB some preliminary database configuration may
be necessary.
Ensure that MongoDB `journaling
<http://www.mongodb.org/display/DOCS/Journaling>`_ is enabled. Journaling
is enabled by default in version 2.0 and later 64-bit MongoDB instances.
Check your deployment, and consider enabling journaling if you're running
32-bit systems or earlier version.
.. warning::
Running MongoDB without journaling risks general data corruption
and raises the possibility of losing data within a 60-second
window when the server restarts.
MediaGoblin recommends enabling MongoDB's journaling feature by
adding a ``--journal`` flag to the command line or a "``journal:
true``" option to the configuration file.
MongoDB can take a lot of space by default. If you're planning on
running a smaller instance, consider the `scaling down guide
<http://wiki.mediagoblin.org/Scaling_Down>`_ for some appropriate
tradeoffs to conserve space.
