Error in installing mongodb-community and mongodb-shell
01:33 06 May 2026

When I am installing the mongodb-community and mongodb-shell for my local system, so that I can use it from my local server, it throws an error. I have tried many different ways to install, but I have failed. ChatGPT is not solving it and Mongo service provider only helps me when I have an issue on cloud-based server.

I am using these links to download and then install the files:

  • Community

    Version - 8.3.1

    Platform - Windows x64

    Package - msi

  • Shell

    Version - 2.8.3

    Platform - Windows x64 (10+)

    Package - tried both zip and msi

Error message in mongodb-community:

Error message in mongodb-shell when using msi package:

Error message when using zip:

Note:

  1. I think when using zip package it needs community server that's why it is showing me this error message.

  2. I have tried different path also for installing these both files.

  3. I have also add new path in my system environment variable.

mongodb mongodb-query
