EPEL MongoDB will not start on EC2 Amazon AMI

Viewed 2488

Using Amazon Linux AMI 2013.09.2 - ami-bba18dd2 (64-bit)

I want to use the mongodb provided by EPEL because it is compiled with SSL support.

[root@domU-12-31-39-02-19-B8 ec2-user]# yum install mongodb-server
Installed:
  mongodb-server.x86_64 0:2.4.6-1.el6                                           

Dependency Installed:
<snip>
Complete!

It seems like it installs with no errors.

When I start the mongod, all I get is this cryptic error.

[root@domU-12-31-39-02-19-B8 ec2-user]# mongod
mongod --help for help and startup options
mongod: symbol lookup error: mongod: undefined symbol: _ZN7pcrecpp2RE4InitEPKcPKNS_10RE_OptionsE

The only direction I see is to download the binaries directly from mongodb. Again, I would prefer the EPEL version because it contains ssl support

Is there a way to get the EPEL version to work?
