Hi,

according to [1] mongodb 3.5 is not supported, only 3.0 or 2.6. Contact daycare to find out when it will be supported.

Hi Mahesh,

You dont have to add '-Doak.mongo.db=aem-author' in your parameters

If you have setup the 'run mode' to crx3mongo and your mongoDB is up and running when you start the AEM, it should automatically create a DB called aem-author.

or you can start AEM with this command

java -XX:MaxPermSize=512M -mx4g -jar aem6-author-p4502.jar -r crx3,crx3mongo -Doak.mongo.uri=mongodb://<hostname>:27017,<hostname>:27018

Hi Mahesh,

you have to edit the start script and add your parameters [1]. After AEM installs, changes to the start script have to be done manually, you can find details on the start script here[2]

Hi Opkar,

 

If you have setup the 'run mode' to crx3mongo and your mongoDB is up and running when you start the AEM, it should automatically create a DB called aem-author --- this dint wrk for me

or you can start AEM with this command

java -XX:MaxPermSize=512M -mx4g -jar aem6-author-p4502.jar -r crx3,crx3mongo -Doak.mongo.uri=mongodb://<hostname>:27017,<hostname>:27018 -- this helped

Hi Mahesh,

no problem :)

I have been through a few posting and they all describe the same procedure[1], [2],[3]

How long are you giving for AEM/MongoDB to initalise? What hardware are you using? From the articles, it appears even with a SSD, the initialisation can take over 5 minutes, with others reporting over 30 minutes.
