This setting crashes mongodb when MONGO_URL is set about meteor-rtd-example-project HOT 4 CLOSED

Hey Sebastian. I haven't gotten around to setting up an external mongo yet. I'll do that and see what the problem is. When you say "kills the mongodb", what do you mean?

from meteor-rtd-example-project.

It stops the mongo instance, so that it is no longer running. I did not figure out yet whether mongo crashes or the scripts stop it.

That's what I find in the logs:

Thu Apr 25 09:58:42 got signal 15 (Terminated: 15), will terminate after current cmd ends

So terminating mongod is the right answer to this signal. But as I said I will try to figure out which application sends the signal.

Aha. It's line 29 in gruntfile.js You can see when RTD starts, it kills mongod just in case. Obviously this is not a good idea when you have a separate running mongod server :-) You should remove that line.

You may also want to use a different database for the mirrorApp (line 44)

Thank you very much. That is really fast support. This solved the issue. Should have found that myself, but I did not think about the possibility that the gruntfile shuts down mongod ;-)
