Saw a reference to "boost" in the crash log. Attempting to reinstall both has not fixed, so thanks for reporting this problem here. Ryan, any (rough) timeline for a fix? -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/48597#comment:4> MacPorts <https://www.macports.org/> Ports system for OS X

Create a "src" directory at the root of your drive (or use another directory outside of your Home directory, such as /tmp). 2. Download the Portfile using the "Original Link" at the bottom of this page: https://trac.macports.org/browser/trunk/dports/devel/boost/Portfile?rev=1367... 3. Move that Portfile into the directory that you created in Step #1. 4. Navigate into the directory and run: sudo port install It says that Boost 1.58.0_3 installs successfully, however it doesn't appear to have worked. Attempting to install MongoDB 3.0.5 proceeds to install Boost 1.59.0 again. Any ideas? -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/48597#comment:6> MacPorts <https://www.macports.org/> Ports system for OS X

Here are the commands you run to revert back to boost 1.58: {{{ cd /tmp svn co -r 136759 http://svn.macports.org/repository/macports/trunk/dports/devel/boost cd boost sudo port install sudo port activate boost @1.58.0 }}} Verify that the old version is now active: {{{ port installed boost }}} The response should be this: {{{ The following ports are currently installed: boost @1.58.0_3+no_single+no_static+python27 (active) boost @1.59.0_0+no_single+no_static+python27 }}} -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/48597#comment:8> MacPorts <https://www.macports.org/> Ports system for OS X

Rather, apparently, boost 1.59 is different enough from 1.58 that it causes a problem for mongodb. (mongodb was updated to 3.0.5 before boost was updated to 1.59.) This is not surprising; the developers of boost frequently make changes that cause problems. Therefore it should improve reliability to switch mongodb to its bundled copy of boost, with which we can assume mongodb will work since that combination has been tested by the mongodb developers. The previous reasons why we were instead using the MacPorts version of boost no longer apply as of mongodb version 3. I have succeeded in building mongodb with its bundled boost. The reason I have not committed it yet is that when I switched mongodb to use its bundled copy of boost, pcre and snappy, it also switched to using the Mac OS X versions of libpcap and openssl, whereas I would want to continue using the MacPorts versions of libpcap and openssl which are newer. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/48597#comment:10> MacPorts <https://www.macports.org/> Ports system for OS X

The problem was originally reported on OS X 10.10, where libc++ is already the default. I suspect that just rebuilding mongodb 3.0.5 with boost 1.59 installed might fix whatever the problem is. (i.e. "sudo port -ns upgrade --force mongodb") But I don't plan on testing that; instead I plan to use the bundled boost as outlined above. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/48597#comment:12> MacPorts <https://www.macports.org/> Ports system for OS X

I haven't reproduced the problem on my system so I can't confirm whether that's really a fix. Anyone who is experiencing the problem and wishes to try can run "`sudo port -ns upgrade --force mongodb`". Let me know if that changes anything. I am waiting for a response from the developers of mongodb to [https://jira.mongodb.org/browse/SERVER-19661?focusedCommentId=1009280&page=c... :comment-tabpanel#comment-1009280 my question] about how to build mongodb with its bundled boost while still using MacPorts versions of some other libraries. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/48597#comment:15> MacPorts <https://www.macports.org/> Ports system for OS X
