Seems my node is syncing, but so far I cannot find the mongodb and the path isn't mentioned in the docs. Trying to setup a non-producing node to query specific incoming transactions. Using Ubuntu 16.04, full EOSIO software, no Docker.

I set :

mongodb-uri = mongodb://localhost:27017

other settings:

blocks-dir = "/opt/mainnet/blocks"
read-mode = read-only
validation-mode = light
mongodb-uri = mongodb://localhost:27017
mongodb-wipe = 1
mongodb-queue-size = 1024
mongodb-abi-cache-size = 2048
# mongodb-block-start = 0
mongodb-store-blocks = 1
mongodb-store-block-states = 1
mongodb-store-transactions = 1
mongodb-store-transaction-traces = 1
mongodb-store-action-traces = 1
mongodb-filter-on = *
mongodb-filter-out = eosio:onblock:
mongodb-filter-out = gu2tembqgage::
mongodb-filter-out = blocktwitter::

current output

2018-09-28T09:02:53.446 thread-1   mongo_db_plugin.cpp:438       consume_blocks       ] process_accepted_transaction, time per: 983, size: 1034, time: 1016557

MongoDB is typically stored at /data/db. If it's not there, check out this question, this question, etc. for advice on finding the location.

edit: The database was found at /var/lib/mongodb as explained in the comments below.

  • interesting. Read this answer several times on the web, my DigitalOcean Ubuntu 16.04 machine could not find any 'data' or 'db' directory related to mongo, I checked them all using sudo find / -name db data And cd /data/ directory did not exist as well. Gonna check the other 2 solutions – Marcel Blockchain Sep 28 '18 at 18:48
  • I also found this article which seems to imply that mongodb is inside ~/opt/mongodb on Linux. – sfmiller940 Sep 28 '18 at 20:21
  • indeed one of the solutions worked with this trick. Using $ cd ~ $ cd .. $ du -hsx * | sort -rh | head -10 on my HDD let me find /var/lib/mongodb# with 66GB currently (has not even synced half). Note, somehow it ignored my second volume at /mnt/volume2 . Double check it's not there Please put the command and the possible paths in the answer and so I can set it as the correct answer – Marcel Blockchain Sep 29 '18 at 7:05

    an addition: vi /etc/mongod.conf and change the standard directory – Marcel Blockchain Oct 3 '18 at 7:48

One hack is that use --dbpath armament,its the path provided externally.
