DescriptionDownstream Change Summary We are removing the default dbpath for macOS:
Description of Linked TicketmacOS Catalina runs in a dedicated, read-only system volume. Consequently, the default dbpath of "/data/db" is not writeable. This issue is discussed in more detail in https://stackoverflow.com/questions/58283257/mongodb-cant-find-data-directory-after-upgrading-to-mac-os-10-15-catalina Since this default will not work on Catalina and later, we should remove the default dbPath for macOS.

milkie Understood. You're referring to the `~/Desktop/Relocated Items` directory? No problem, I'l put together a tutorial, but awaiting upstream ticket for specifics (log message changes / default behavior changes if any). |
