So far, I have been unable to install b10 onto OSX and point it at an existing MongoDB.
It might be me, so I will keep trying…

Hey Mike,
Are you installing the client or the repository? If it’s the client, does the software install, but then is unable to connect, or does it fail to install in the first place? If it simply can’t connect, can you check if you can ping the mongodb machine from the Mac (it could be a DNS issue)?
Any additional info you can give us would be great!
Cheers,

FYI.
The fix in beta v11:
“- The Repository installer no longer tries to validate the MongoDB host name field before proceeding. This would sometimes complain that valid names were invalid.”…
…may well be what I need to resolve my OSX install issue. I will test shortly and come back to you.

beta v11 didn’t fix my issue.
Looks more like a mono dependency issue; yet I have downloaded and installed the runtime pkg and mongod is running in the background fine.
See attached error message.

Strange. We’ve never seen this issue on the Mac (since the Mono installer installs everything). Which version of Mono did you install? We currently require 2.10 or later. If you have more than one version of Mono installed, try uninstalling them all with this handy shell script:
mono-project.com/Mono:OSX#Un … n_Mac_OS_X
Then reinstall the latest Mono and try again.
Cheers,
