As of MongoDBs documentation Rocky 9 is supported: > **[Install MongoDB Community Edition on Red Hat or CentOS — MongoDB Manual](https://www.mongodb.com/docs/manual/tutorial/install-mongodb-on-red-hat/#platform-support)** ---

Could you check the system journal (i.e. `journalctl -r`) if there are any other messages, the one in the screenshot does not really tell a whole lot (don’t have access to a system right now) ---

Seems strange, I’ve just followed this: [https://www.mongodb.com/docs/manual/tutorial/install-mongodb-on-red-hat/](https://www.mongodb.com/docs/manual/tutorial/install-mongodb-on-red-hat/) and installed MongoDB 6.0.8 on Rocky 9 and it just worked. The only things I did were: ```auto nano -w /etc/yum.repos.d/mongodb.repo dnf install mongodb-org systemctl enable mongod systemctl start mongod ``` the first command I pasted the repo config, the second installed MongoDB, third and fourth enabling and starting mongod. What cpu/ram has your VM/server got? Mine is 2cpu, 4gb ram. Yours seems to have core-dumped for some reason, but the logs @lumarel asked for may explain more. MongoDB seems to be the problem here, you would be better asking on the MongoDB forums since this is a MongoDB problem, not Rocky. Help here could be somewhat limited, depending on the type of error appearing, and how many MongoDB experts are here. Check your VM/server requirements are enough first in terms of cpu/ram/disk, and then we’ll see based on further logs provided by you. Another possibility that I found with google is that if you had MongoDB 5 installed, then changes between 5 and 6 could also cause this. Or perhaps this: [Status of Mongod returns core-dump - Installation & Upgrades - MongoDB Developer Community Forums](https://www.mongodb.com/community/forums/t/status-of-mongod-returns-core-dump/130769) ---
