Running MongoDB Compass 1.28.x (or lower) in Docker (Ubuntu 24.04+)

Running MongoDB Compass 1.28.4 in Docker (Ubuntu 24.04)

This guide walks you through installing and running MongoDB Compass 1.28.4 inside a Docker container, with GUI support, and connected to a MongoDB 3.6 container on Ubuntu 24.04 LTS.


Why this setup?

  • Compass 1.28.4 is one of the last versions that supports MongoDB 3.6.
  • Ubuntu 24.04 no longer includes libgconf-2-4, which Compass depends on.

If you need to install multiple mongo (or any, like Maria) databases in the same OS

Sometimes you might need multiple instances of mongo or mysql installed. Instead of installing them locally, just user the dockerimage

Having the databases on docker containers gives me flexibility in swaping databases pretty easily.

Before starting, to persist the databases, we need to store the volumes somewhere. I like to make a "databases" folder in my home folder, but you can put them wherever you want. Just make sure to persist them

Example: Installing mongo3.6 & mongo3.2
