MongoDB Installation

Drivers

Note:The Bitnami packages come with an instance of MongoDB and the drivers already installed. No further action is necessary.

Ensure that you have the php-pear and php5-dev packages installed on your system. You will also need the pcre3 and sasl2 development libraries.
- <source lang=bash>$ sudo apt-get install php-pear php5-dev libpcre3-dev libsasl2-dev</source>
Use PECL to make the mongo.so file
- <source lang=bash>$ sudo pecl install mongo</source>

Note:If the the install generates any errors it will fail. You will need to troubleshoot based on the error reported.

Create a module file for your mongo installation.
- <source lang=bash>$ sudo touch /etc/php5/mods-available/mongo.ini</source>
Edit the file you just created in your preferred text editor.
- There is a single line in the file it looks like this:
- <source lang=bash>extension=mongo.so</source>
Enable the php extension
- <source lang=bash>$ sudo php5enmod mongo</source>
Restart your web service service
- <source lang=bash>$ sudo service apache2 restart</source> or
- <source lang=bash>$ sudo service nginx restart</source>
