            <title>[SERVER-38244] Unix Permission required on data folder</title>
                <link>https://jira.mongodb.org/browse/SERVER-38244</link>
                <project id="10000" key="SERVER">Core Server</project>
                    <description>&lt;p&gt;We are running a security scan on Mongo DB server using the guidelines provided by CIS organization. Following link gives the rules that are recommended by CIS and should be adhered to for considering a Mongo DB installation compliant.&#160;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.itsecure.hu/library/image/CIS_MongoDB_3.4_Benchmark_v1.0.0.pdf&quot; class=&quot;external-link&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow noopener&quot;&gt;http://www.itsecure.hu/library/image/CIS_MongoDB_3.4_Benchmark_v1.0.0.pdf&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Referring to point number &lt;b&gt;7.2 Ensure that database file permissions are set correctly (Scored),&lt;/b&gt;&#160;the permission required on the data directory should be set to 660. When we set the data directory to this permission, the server fails to start with a &quot;&lt;b&gt;Permission denied&lt;/b&gt;&quot; error.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Could you please provide reference documentation which specifies the minimum required permissions for the mongo user on the data directory for smooth running of MongoDB Server?&lt;/p&gt;</description>

&lt;p&gt;I cannot speak to the document you linked as it was not created by MongoDB. Per our &lt;a href=&quot;https://docs.mongodb.com/manual/administration/production-notes/index.html#mongodb-dbpath&quot; class=&quot;external-link&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow noopener&quot;&gt;Production Notes&lt;/a&gt;, MongoDB requires read and write permissions on the files as well as the ability to run them in the first place. Thus, you should provide at least 700 to the &lt;tt&gt;dbpath&lt;/tt&gt; when it is owned by the user running the &lt;tt&gt;mongod&lt;/tt&gt; process.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Thank you,&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Danny&lt;/p&gt;</comment>
