Like you, I had issue with updates while using MongoDB (on Ubuntu which I know you dislike). I used NeDB and all was fine. Did you try an install with NeDB and have the same issues?
If you run this as a restricted user, it will not be able to update itself. that is normal.

Oh ok. I misunderstood. My bad.

MongoDB removed from Fedora 30?
Yup, we knew this.

The official Mesh Central guide shows to use the MongoDB community edition.

I don't have the time to deal with this right now though.

@JaredBusch Thanks for this. Will give it a try.

MongoDB licensing makes it hard to include, and many people don't want it because it is not licensed correctly for distribution.

Followed @JaredBusch link to instructions and worked like a charm.
-
Worked fine for me on Fedora 30.
Only change was the MogoDB install. I had to add a repo for it and usednf -y install mongodb-org -
Any reason so many people are using MongoDB? How big are these installs?

Because it was the recommendation from the developer at the time.
I would not do it now based on the information recently release din the other thread.

Is it possible to migrate from MongoDB to NeDB after we've been running for a while? Easier to just start over?

Probably, but never considered doing that!

I think @Ylian mentioned that is was possible or was going to be possible. in the main thread.. not 100% sure.

Should be, they share a format. I've just never ingested a backup into NeDB before.
