Step 1: Download and Install MongoDB in the following path (c:\mongodb)
Step 2: Create folders and configuration file
Step 2.1: Create a folder (c:\mongodb\data)
Step 2.2: Create a folder (c:\mongodb\data\db)
Step 2.3: Create a folder (c:\mongodb\data\log)
Step 2.4: Create a file mongod.cfg inside (c:\mongodb\config) that also needs to be created
Step 2.5: Insert the following into the file that you created (mongod.cfg):
systemLog: destination: file path: c:\mongodb\data\log\mongod.log storage: dbPath: c:\mongodb\data\db
Step 3: Install the MongoDB service
sc.exe create MongoDB binPath= "C:\mongodb\bin\mongod.exe --service --config=\"C:\mongodb\config\mongod.cfg\"" DisplayName= "MongoDB" start= "auto"
Step 4: Start the MongoDB service
net start MongoDB
Step 5: Create the Databases
Step 5.1:
use admin
Step 5.2:
db.createUser({user: "USERNAME",pwd: "PASSWORD",roles: [ { role: "userAdminAnyDatabase", db:"admin" }, { role: "root", db:"admin" } ] })
Step 5.2:
db.auth("USERNAME", "PASSWORD")
Step 5.3:
use analytics db.createUser({user: "USERNAME",pwd: "PASSWORD",roles: [ { role: "readWrite", db:"analytics" } ] }) use tracking_live db.createUser({user: "USERNAME",pwd: "PASSWORD",roles: [ { role: "readWrite", db:"tracking_live" } ] }) use tracking_history db.createUser({user: "USERNAME",pwd: "PASSWORD",roles: [ { role: "readWrite", db:"tracking_history" } ] }) use tracking_contact db.createUser({user: "USERNAME",pwd: "PASSWORD",roles: [ { role: "readWrite", db:"tracking_contact" } ] })
Step 6: Add the following to the ConnectionStrings.config
<add name="analytics" connectionString="mongodb://USERNAME:PASSWORD@localhost/analytics"/> <add name="tracking.live" connectionString="mongodb://USERNAME:PASSWORD@localhost/tracking_live"/> <add name="tracking.history" connectionString="mongodb://USERNAME:PASSWORD@localhost/tracking_history"/> <add name="tracking.contact" connectionString="mongodb://USERNAME:PASSWORD@localhost/tracking_contact"/>
To view the databases that you created. I recommend to download RoboMongo. Install it and create a basic connection name is “Sitecore” and see them all.
