Mongo instance doesn't support transactions

[holyfive]

Using this compose file on a fresh docker installation results in an ongoing restarting Sharelatex container, saying:

I have the same error. I added command: --replSet rs0 on the mongo compose config and bypassed this error.

mongo:
        restart: always
        image: mongo:4.4
        command: --replSet rs0

But now I have this new error:

This worked for me like a charm~

Great advise, thanks a lot! Now I got it working too.

I'm also receiving this issue and tried to follow the comment on 1120 but I still had a time out error. Is there another fix out there?

For context I'm trying to set this up on unraid so I'm not 100% familiar with the docker compose file in the comment but I believe I did the same thing on the unraid docker management to the best that I could.

[KeckigerKeks]

is it the same error that you cited?

from my perspective, he didn't add the one-time container to start up mongodb:

mongoinit:
    image: mongo:4.4
    # this container will exit after executing the command
    restart: "no"
    depends_on:
      mongo:
        condition: service_healthy
    entrypoint:
      [
        "mongo",
        "--host",
        "mongo:27017",
        "--eval",
        'rs.initiate({ _id: "overleaf", members: [ { _id: 0, host: "mongo:27017" } ] })',
      ]

please provide us at least a logfile next time~

[RafaelCenzano]

Yes, same error. You are correct I didn't realize that was a separate container. I'm not sure how to run a separate container like this on Unraid since it operates using templates and single docker containers instead of docker-compose files. Is there a way I can do it manually one time via the console, if not that is no problem and not an issue to be discussed here.

Hello everyone.

I managed to get it running in my Ubuntu Server 22.04.3.

I used a different image for my mongodb though.

Here's my docker-compose.yml: leonamtv/overleaf-leo-config/docker-compose.yml

Part that fixed the issue:

    mongo:
        image: bitnami/mongodb:5.0
        container_name: mongo
        restart: always
        ports:
            - "27017:27017"
        volumes:
            - ~/mongo_data:/data/db
        healthcheck:
            test: echo 'db.stats().ok' | mongo localhost:27017/test --quiet
            interval: 10s
            timeout: 10s
            retries: 5
        environment:
            MONGODB_REPLICA_SET_MODE: primary
            ALLOW_EMPTY_PASSWORD: 'yes'

I hope that helps!

Regards!
