Mongodb wont start after the 8.0.3 update

[hayoken2000]

This is a production server and I have clients needing this server up any help needed after the updates this afternoon all of my apps are in configuring mode and the log says waiting on mongodb. I have restarted the server and force restart the mongodb service. I have logs for both the server and mongodb.

I think I fixed it by doing this:

mv /home/yellowtent/platformdata/mongodb/ /home/yellowtent/platformdata/mongodb-save
mkdir /home/yellowtent/platformdata/mongodb/
systemctl restart box

Then, mongodb should come up or go to Services -> Restart Mongodb. * I had to reboot the server instead. Also some errored after configuring had to go to each app and repair and retry task.

Thanks for sharing this. From the logs (sent to our support) this was triggered by an update to 8.0.3 where upgrading the mongodb instance didn't succeeds correctly. Unfortunately there is nothing much in the mongodb logs besides a plain "core dump" crash.

But as @hayoken2000 outlines, one can always purge mongodb data and let it start fresh, then restore those apps.
