Uninstall MongoDB on Mac OS X - reactjs

When I try to run mongod from the terminal, I get the following error:
2014-07-02T23:56:24.797-0700 [initandlisten] ERROR: listen(): bind() failed errno:48 Address already in use for socket: 0.0.0.0:27017
2014-07-02T23:56:24.797-0700 [initandlisten] ERROR: addr already in use
I recently realize that I have two versions of MongoDB on my Mac, and think this may be the source for the above error. (Plus, I do not need two version.) I tried Googling, but was not able to find clear directions on how I can uninstall. I have development version 2.7.0 AND 2.6.3.
Thanks so much in advance for the help!

Run the following commands to remove mongodb from the launch/startup and to uninstall it using Homebrew:
# See if mongo is in the launch/startup list
launchctl list | grep mongo
# Remove mongodb from the launch/startup
launchctl remove homebrew.mxcl.mongodb
# Kill the mongod process just in case it's running
pkill -f mongod
# Now you can safely remove mongodb using Homebrew
brew uninstall mongodb
Just double-check in /usr/local/bin/ to make sure that the mongodb commands are removed.

For uninstalling the community version, i found that the command brew uninstall mongodb-community worked for me

Nitin Jadhav version worked for me, brew uninstall mongodb kept given me Error: No such keg: /usr/local/Cellar/mongodb. I was removing a mongodb-community.
use cd /usr/local/Cellar then run ls -a and then run rm -rf mongodb-community to remove it

I would suggest navigating into your /usr/local/Cellar and run an ls -a, I had a community version of mongo installed that wasn't being picked up by the command given above. If you find any mongo versions there just rm -rf each instance

For those having this error in osx:
brew uninstall mongodb Error: No such keg: /usr/local/Cellar/mongodb
execute brew list | grep mongo
for example, it could show something like:
mongodb-community#4.2
mongodb-database-tools
mongosh
remove them with brew uninstall mongodb-community#4.2 mongodb-database-tools mongosh
Also execute launchctl remove homebrew.mxcl.mongodb as #anuvrat-tiku says in his answer.

Running into problems installing MongoDB on MacOS Terminal

I am trying to install mongoDB as a macOS service but I am running to some errors
I first put in the terminal
brew tap mongodb
Nothing really happens.
But, when I run:
brew install mongodb-community#5.0
I receive:
Warning: No available formula with the name "mongosh" (dependency of mongodb/brew/mongodb-community). Did you mean mongocli?
==> Searching for similarly named fo This similarly named formula was found: mongocli ✔
To install it, run: brew install mongocli ✔ It was migrated from mongodb/brew to homebrew/core.
Finally, when I run
brew services start mongodb-community#5.0
I receive
Error: Formula 'mongodb-community' is not installed.
Any advice?
I had the same happen, however my issue was actually with this error:
fatal: could not solve HEAD to a revision
solve it using:
git -C $(brew --repository homebrew/core) checkout master
you can also:
brew update
brew upgrade
brew upgrade --cask
brew cleanup
and then restart the mongodb community edition install process again! Worked for me!
I am experiencing the exact same problem (I am using MacOC version 11.5.1).
The reason why your brew tap mongodb does not seem to be doing anything may be because you have already tapped into mongodb. Try untapping with brew untap mongodband retapping with brew tap mongodb/brew.
After you have established the connection, try installing again with brew install mongodb-community#5.0. At this stage, I could not get the installation to work for version 5.0 so I installed version 4.4 instead (with brew install mongodb-community#4.4).
After that, try running mongo with brew services start mongodb-community#5.0 (or brew services start mongodb-community#4.4 if you have installed 4.4 version) and it should work just fine!
If you have installed version 4.4, be sure to run the command PATH="/usr/local/opt/mongodb-community#4.4/bin" mongo to start the mongo shell.
I was also having the same issue. This solved it for me:
git -C $(brew --repository homebrew/core) checkout master
brew update
brew upgrade
brew upgrade --cask
brew cleanup
Then install the latest version of Mongodb community using:
brew install mongodb-community#6.0
Note: version might be outdated at the time you're reading this
Check with brew list | grep mongo that mongodb-community, mongodb-database-tools, mongosh exist at your PC. If they do not exist, install them with brew.
Recently also installed mongodb V4.4.5 and can not start it with brew services start mongodb-community. For me works starting it manually as a background process as admin sudo mongod --config /usr/local/etc/mongod.conf --fork
And last call mongo to work with mongoDB shell.
Reason: directory/file access issue. Not sure.

Zsh: Command Not found : mongo After trying to install mongodb 4.2 using brew

I have tried the following steps to install and setup mongodb in my mac from here https://docs.mongodb.com/manual/tutorial/install-mongodb-on-os-x/ but I got the following error when running the final "mongo" command in my terminal:
Error Message - Zsh: Command Not found : mongo
This error msg occurred after trying to install mongodb 4.2 using brew
sudo chown -R $(whoami) $(brew --prefix)/*
then
brew tap mongodb/brew
then
brew install mongodb-community#4.2
and
brew services start mongodb-community#4.2
or
mongod --config /usr/local/etc/mongod.conf
then
ps aux | grep -v grep | grep mongod
and
mongo
running brew services start mongodb-community#4.2 returns:
Successfully started `mongodb-community#4.2` (label: homebrew.mxcl.mongodb-community#4.2)
running ps aux | grep -v grep | grep mongod returns:
9081 0.2 0.5 5528024 41856 ?? S 3:01pm 0:01.48 /usr/local/opt/mongodb-community#4.2/bin/mongod --config /usr/local/etc/mongod.conf
7613 0.0 0.1 4298832 5600 s000 T 2:47pm 0:00.08 vim /usr/local/etc/mongod.conf
running mongod --config /usr/local/etc/mongod.conf returns:
zsh: command not found: mongod
There are also no mongo files in my /usr/local/bin directory after using these commands
I created a data/db folder in my /usr/local/bin directory using the following commands:
sudo mkdir -p /usr/local/bin/data/db
sudo chown -R `id -un` /usr/local/bin/data/db
Running "brew update" returns:
brew update
Updated 1 tap (homebrew/cask).
==> Updated Casks
brave-browser
brew install mongodb-community-shell
Fixed the problem for me.
Solved it by manually installing the mongodb community files and db tools using the website instead. Then copying them into /usr/local/bin. Then ignoring the app permissions whenever calling mongo or related commands in the terminal through System Preferences > Security & Privacy > General.
After googling I found out that mongoimport and the other features have to be installed separately: https://www.mongodb.com/try/download/database-tools
Followed by copying those bin files after extracting them into the same /usr/local/bin directory
Not sure why its' not working through homebrew though
This worked for me, I was having same issue on mongodb-community#4.4
brew reinstall mongodb-community#4.4
On terminal something like this will appear during reinstallation.
copy highlighted path with echo
echo 'export PATH="/opt/homebrew/opt/mongodb-community#4.4/bin:$PATH"' >> ~/.zshrc
Now open another terminal and start mongodb services
brew services restart mongodb/brew/mongodb-community#4.4
write mongo on terminal and here we fly
If you installed the mongodb via Homebrew. Need to add the mongo path in your bash_profile.
Edit the bash_profile vi ~/.bash_profile
Add the below line in EOF export PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/opt/mongodb-community#4.2/bin
After the edit bash_profile. Close all terminals and open them again. mongo command start works.
In addition to #ramesh-babu-t-b 's answer, https://stackoverflow.com/a/68407530/1279516, the issue could also be that your MongoDB installation did add mongod to your path, but the installation happened within the current shell session, and so your shell doesn't have the updates to the PATH variable yet.
In this case, only his last step is still necessary - Open a new console window and retry the mongod command.

Oracle JDK 11 error occuring every time, I install anything in terminal

Below is the Error message I get every time I install anything in the terminal . Its kinda stuck there for a while.
I tried no. of solutions from StackOverflow but nothing worked.
Before installing this package,
please download the Oracle JDK 11 .tar.gz file
with the same version as this package (version 11.0.4),
and place it in /var/cache/oracle-jdk11-installer-local,
E.g.:
sudo mkdir -p /var/cache/oracle-jdk11-installer-local
sudo cp jdk-11.0.4_linux-x64_bin.tar.gz /var/cache/oracle-jdk11-installer-local/
sha256sum mismatch jdk-11.0.4_linux-x64_bin.tar.gz
Oracle JDK 11 is NOT installed.
dpkg: error processing package oracle-java11-installer-local (--configure):
installed oracle-java11-installer-local package post-installation script subprocess returned error exit status 1
Errors were encountered while processing:
oracle-java11-installer-local
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)
Doesn't show up again.
Remove the package oracle-java11-installer-local. You can do this in following way:
sudo apt remove oracle-java11-installer-local
found this solution:
sudo rm /var/lib/dpkg/info/oracle-java11-installer-local.postinst
at this site.
You need to download the folder of the Oracle JDK 11 on here https://www.oracle.com/java/technologies/javase-jdk11-downloads.html
After download the tar.gz file. Move to your folder location then copy the file by using this command
sudo cp jdk-11.0.6_linux-x64_bin.tar.gz /var/cache/oracle-jdk11-installer-local/
don't forget to check your file name! After that repeat again by typing
sudo apt-get install oracle-java11-installer-local
and you can check your java version after that by typing
java -version
Hello,
I've had the same issue.
When you try to run sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade it will automatically try to update the Java if a newer version is available. In my case let's say from 11.0.4 -> 11.0.5.
If you add the JDK from Oracle (after download) to /var/cache/oracle-jdk11-installer-local/ it should work.
You don't have to uninstall it...(I mean the oracle-jdk11-installer-local, it works just fine).
Please let me know if you still have this issue.
I had the same issue. My solution was to download jdk-11.0.5_linux-x64_bin.tar.gz and copied it to /var/cache/oracle-jdk11-installer-local.
In console shell, type:
sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade
After a long search: this solved it for me.
The checksum made the issues for me. Try:
sudo rm /var/lib/dpkg/info/oracle-java11-installer-local.postinst -f
Navigating to the directory var/cache and doing "sudo rmdir oracle-jdk11-installer-local/" worked for me.
sudo rmdir oracle-jdk11-installer-local/
I have managed to resolve the issue by doing this:
modify /var/lib/dpkg/info/oracle-java11-installer-local.postinst
Change the checkSum. take from oracle website check sum for 11.0.15.1
3. change the version in 2 places
4. save and update apt
5. then sudo apt install oracle-java11-installer-local
this worked for me

postgreSQL error initdb: command not found

i was installing postgresql on ubuntu using linuxbrew:
brew install postgresql
it seems to work fine but after that because i was installing PostgreSQL for the first time i tried creating a database:
initdb /usr/local/var/postgres -E utf8
but it returned as:
initdb: command not found
i tried running the command with sudo but that doesn't helped
run locate initdb it should give you the list to chose. smth like:
MacBook-Air:~ vao$ locate initdb
/usr/local/Cellar/postgresql/9.5.3/bin/initdb
/usr/local/Cellar/postgresql/9.5.3/share/doc/postgresql/html/app-initdb.html
/usr/local/Cellar/postgresql/9.5.3/share/man/man1/initdb.1
/usr/local/Cellar/postgresql/9.6.1/bin/initdb
/usr/local/Cellar/postgresql/9.6.1/share/doc/postgresql/html/app-initdb.html
/usr/local/Cellar/postgresql/9.6.1/share/man/man1/initdb.1
/usr/local/bin/initdb
/usr/local/share/man/man1/initdb.1
So in my case I want to run
/usr/local/Cellar/postgresql/9.6.1/bin/initdb
If you don't have mlocate installed, either install it or use
sudo find / -name initdb
There's a good answer to a similar question on SuperUser.
In short:
Postgres groups databases into "clusters", each of which is a named collection of databases sharing a configuration and data location, and running on a single server instance with its own TCP port.
If you only want a single instance of Postgres, the installation includes a cluster named "main", so you don't need to run initdb to create one.
If you do need multiple clusters, then the Postgres packages for Debian and Ubuntu provide a different command pg_createcluster to be used instead of initdb, with the latter not included in PATH so as to discourage end users from using it directly.
And if you're just trying to create a database, not a database cluster, use the createdb command instead.
I had the same problem and found the answer here.
Ubuntu path is
/usr/lib/postgresql/9.6/bin/initdb
Edit: Sorry, Ahmed asked about linuxbrew, I'm talking about Ubuntu.
I Hope this answer helps somebody.
I had a similar issue caused by the brew install postgresql not properly linking postgres. The solve for me was to run:
brew link --overwrite postgresql
you can add the PATH to run from any location
sudo nano ~/.profile
inside nano go to the end and add the following
# set PATH so it includes user's private bin if it exists
if [ -d "/usr/lib/postgresql/14/bin/" ] ; then
PATH="/usr/lib/postgresql/14/bin/:$PATH"
fi
and configure the alternative
sudo update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/initdb initdb /usr/lib/postgresql/14/bin/initdb 1

Brew error: Could not symlink, path is not writable

When I try to install a library with homebrew (brew install aLibrary), I got the following error:
Could not symlink lib/pkgconfig/aFile
/usr/local/lib/pkgconfig is not writable.
What should I do?
There are several questions and answers (1,2,etc.) concerning this brew error, this is an attempt to make a general question as suggested here.
As explained here by Rick:
Start with brew doctor which will show you errors with your brew setup.
You might see something like this: "Warning: /usr/local/lib/pkgconfig isn't writable."
It will give you the advice that: "You should probably chown /usr/local/lib/pkgconfig".
This means: sudo chown -R $(whoami) /usr/local/lib/pkgconfig
Then you will need to link the files with this: brew link yourLibrary
If this does not work hopefully the output of brew doctor will give you enough to continue the search.
Giant Elk had a great suggestion and this is how I fixed my issue, which in my opinion is the cleanest. Users should not change permissions unless they know the ramifications.
Output your installed packages (via brew) to a text file:
brew list > brewlist.txt
Uninstall brew:
ruby -e "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/master/uninstall)"
Re-install brew:
/usr/bin/ruby -e "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/master/install)"
Re-install previous packages (edit list if you do not need all packages):
brew install $(< brewlist.txt )
Use the following.
$ brew doctor
message will display error links to prune. If any found, run next option.
$ brew prune
once these are removed, proceed to link them agian
$ brew link python
I uninstalled brew, re-installed, then the issues went away.
You should simply give the permission to your account by running this command on terminal.
sudo chown -R $(whoami) (path)
In your case:
sudo chown -R $(whoami) lib/pkgconfig/aFile /usr/local/lib/pkgconfig
