chore(mongo): upgrade embedded MongoDB from 7.0 to 8.0#42153wyattwalter wants to merge 1 commit into
Conversation
MongoDB 8.0 requires data at featureCompatibilityVersion 7.0 or higher. Releases 2.2 and 2.3 already raise FCV to 7.0 on boot, so instances that have run either of those upgrade cleanly. The entrypoint pre-flight now reads the FCV marker's value (not just its presence): markers below 7.0 (written by 2.0/2.1, whose floor was 6.0) fall through to the one-time mongod probe, and incompatible data fails fast with guidance to hop through v2.2/v2.3 first. The fixer's FCV floor stays at 7.0, preserving rollback to the 2.x MongoDB 7 releases. The 8.0 apt series has noble packages, so the jammy fallback is gone. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
WalkthroughThe deployment image now uses MongoDB 8.0 on Ubuntu Noble. FCV compatibility checks require FCV 7.0 and validate existing marker files before probing. MongoDB fixer documentation now describes MongoDB 8.x, rollback support, and fresh-install FCV 8.0 behavior. ChangesMongoDB 8 Upgrade Compatibility
Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to Malformed FCV markers can bypass the compatibility check and cause upgraded instances to enter a startup crash-loop without the intended recovery guidance. Merge should wait for the marker format validation to be corrected. Suggested reviewers: Poem

Validate the complete FCV marker value before the fast path.
Line 361 accepts malformed values such as 7.invalid and 7..0. Both values produce marker_major=7 and skip the probe. Invalid markers must run the probe, or incompatible data can reach supervisord and fail without the intended pre-flight guidance.

Description
Upgrades the embedded MongoDB in the Docker image from 7.0.x to 8.0.x (latest patch of the 8.0 LTS line via the apt series pin; currently 8.0.29). The 8.0 series publishes Ubuntu 24.04 (noble) packages, so the jammy-packages-on-noble workaround is gone too.
MongoDB 8.x refuses to start on data below featureCompatibilityVersion (FCV) 7.0. Releases v2.2/v2.3 already raise FCV to 7.0 on boot (#41922), so instances that have run either upgrade cleanly. The startup pre-flight is adapted for the cases that haven't:
6.0(their committed floor) and prove nothing about mongod 8.x compatibility — they fall through to the one-timemongodprobe. Under the old presence-only check, that data would have skipped straight into a supervisord crash-loop.mongodb-fixer.sh's committed floor stays at 7.0 — same two-step pattern as the 6→7 upgrade — so rollback to the MongoDB-7-based releases (v2.0–v2.3) keeps working. Raising the floor to 8.0 is a later release's groundwork for MongoDB 9.External MongoDB instances are unaffected: the pre-flight and fixer only run for the embedded database (
isUriLocal), unchanged.Linear: https://linear.app/appsmith/issue/APP-14888
Impact on existing instances
7.0. No probe runs.7.0fast-path, no probe, FCV stays 7.0.6.0→ probe runs once. Data actually at FCV 7.0 (fresh 2.x installs): probe passes, marker rewritten. Data at FCV 6.0 (upgraded from 1.x): container exits 1 pre-flight with instructions to hop through v2.2/v2.3. No migrations have run at that point, so rollback is just an image-tag change.Call sites checked
ensure_mongodb_fcv_compatible(entrypoint.sh) — only consumer of the marker file; updated.mongodb-fixer.sh— only writer of the marker file; floor unchanged at 7.0, comments updated.base.dockerfile— only place the embedded mongod version is installed. mongosh comes from the same 8.0 repo; mongo database tools are built from source at 100.17.0, which supports server 8.0.mongodb@^5.8.0— officially supports ≤7.0, but its usage (hello/admin commands; backup shells out to mongodump) verified working against 8.0 in the validation runs below. Driver bump tracked separately.Validation
