To modify the MongoDB configuration file, you need to follow the steps below.
- the mongodb configuration file located in /etc/
sudo vi /etc/mongodb.conf
- You can modify the following common configuration parameters in the configuration file.
- Specify the IP address that MongoDB listens to with the bind_ip directive. By default it is set to 127.0.0.1, indicating only local connections are allowed. If you wish to allow remote connections, you can change it to 0.0.0.0.
- The port option specifies the port number that MongoDB listens on, which is by default set to 27017. You can change it to a different port number as needed.
- dbpath: Specifies the storage location for MongoDB data files, which is typically set to /var/lib/mongodb by default. You have the option to change it to a different path.
- logpath: Specify the storage path for the MongoDB log file, default is /var/log/mongodb/mongodb.log. You can change it to another path.
- logappend: Specify whether to append the log to an existing log file, default is true. If you want to create a new log file every time MongoDB starts, you can change it to false.
- After making the changes, save and close the configuration file.
- Restart the MongoDB service to apply the changes made to the configuration file. You can restart the MongoDB service using the following command:
sudo systemctl restart mongodb
