RockMongo is a MongoDB GUI tool. It’s freely available to download
The easiest way to get started is to install Apache and PHP:
$ sudo apt-get install apache2 php5 php-pear
If you need to edit the Apache ports because you already have another server running on port 80 then edit /etc/apache2/ports.conf.
You’ll need to install the PHP Mongo connector:
$ sudo pecl install php_mongo
Add the following line to your php.ini file:
extension=mongo.so
If pecl runs out of memory while installing, make sure memory_limit in php.ini is set to at least 32MB.
Add “extension=mongo.so” to the “Dynamic Extensions” section of /etc/php5/apache2/php.ini and restart Apache with
$ sudo service apache2 restart
There is a different kind of instruction given under the following page
Link
It suggests to use the below command
$ sudo pecl install mongo
After installation go to
http://localhost/rockmongo/index.php
with username = “admin” and password= “admin” (these are set as default)
PS: I’m yet to get it working. This post is only for documentation purposes.
