@phenomlab thank you very much for the assistance Mark, massively appreciated as always.
The great thing about this is it’s all documented for other NodeBB users that come looking for solutions 😃.
Looks far better 🤝👍🏻.
Running nodeBB on v6 of MongoDB and tried to upgrade to v7
Is there any benefit to upgrading?
Anyway I did
sudo apt update
and saw these lines (which still references v6?)
…https://repo.mongodb.org/apt/ubuntu jammy/mongodb-org/6.0 InRelease
Hit:10 https://repo.mongodb.org/apt/ubuntu jammy/mongodb-org/6.0 Release
Then
sudo apt upgrade mongodb
didnt work

Package mongodb is not available, but is referred to by another package.
This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
is only available from another source
E: Package 'mongodb' has no installation candidate
Can anyone explain what failed there?
Just to add, the server is running Ubuntu. I read something once about Ubuntu having its own list of where it gets updates from?
Im not sure if that is the case, and is relevant
@Panda yes, Ubuntu does have its own PPA repository for most software, but not for mongodb. This should help in terms of the upgrade

@phenomlab ok thanks, so any idea what caused it not to upgrade?
@Panda if you used the Ubuntu PPA, I think this only goes as far as 6.x if I recall correctly.
