installing mongodb in a docker container

Question

I am trying to create a docker image for mongodb. I am followed the installation instructions from the official mongodb installation to the letter without success. I have tried every single blog and installation instruction out there but without any success. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

My dockerfile contents :

FROM ubuntu:16.04
RUN apt-key adv --keyserver hkp://keyserver.ubuntu.com:80 --recv 0C49F3730359A14518585931BC711F9BA15703C6
RUN echo "deb [ arch=amd64 ] http://repo.mongodb.org/apt/ubuntu/ xenial/mongodb-org/3.4 multiverse" |  tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/mongodb-3.4.list

RUN apt-get update && apt-get install -y mongodb-org
RUN mkdir -p /data/db
RUN chown -R mongodb:mongodb /data/db
ADD mongodb.conf /etc/mongodb.conf
ADD mongodb.pem /etc/ssl/certs/mongodb.pem

VOLUME ["/data/db"]
EXPOSE 27017
ENTRYPOINT ["/usr/bin/mongod", "--config", "/etc/mongodb.conf"]

I am using the follwing command :

sudo docker image build -t mongodb .

Everytime I am trying to build the image, I get the following:

E: Some index files failed to download. They have been ignored, or old ones used instead.
The command '/bin/sh -c apt-get update && apt-get install -y mongodb-org' returned a non-zero code: 100

Answer 1

The line RUN apt-get update && apt-get install -y mongodb-org should be RUN apt-get update && apt-get install -y mongodb You can also just use the official mongo image and then provide a docker link

Answer 2

I'm hoping you know that you don't have to go to the effort because there is already an official image on Docker Hub.

However, your error message gives a hint to what went wrong:

mongodb-org/3.4/multiverse/binary-amd64/Packages.gz Hash Sum mismatch

You can correct this if you are determined to make your own image.

One place I would start is looking at the Docker best practices for run. You have split some related to the same dependency over multiple lines in your code, which can cause caching to mismatch versions and hashes. This is likely the problem.

If you aren't satisfied with using the official image directly you can at least look at how it was built here: https://github.com/docker-library/mongo/blob/c02ca4cce8c69e5069b75cb574d1b99d7b4edaeb/3.4/Dockerfile
