Parse Server and Mongodb in Plesk

[christianbalderrama]

Hi, I am new to Parse Server and we are hosting our Node.js projects on Plesk. I have a project using Parse Server whereas I have configured the Parse-Server successfully in my localhost, however my problem is that how do I create a mongodb instance with this kind of format

mongodb://User:Pass@ipHere/databaseName

I did try to add a User with a readWrite access locally and with the environment variables in the project the serverURL I set was mongodb//User:Pass@ipHere/databaseName where the User and Password is what I have added in the user locally.

I am finding solutions for over 48 hours already and pretty much stuck with this problem. I am new to deployments, please bear with me. Thanks!

I've added user for the database from Mongobooster

Here is the environment variables in the Plesk Server. I've used express as middleware for this project.

I was expecting that automatically the Revolution database will be created once the SERVER_URL is replaced, but I when I tried to connect to the direct mongodb URI mongodb://Revolution:Revolution@serverIp/Revolution where I have set to the environment variable I get this kind of error .

This is more a hosting & systems administration issue than a Parse Server bug.

You might do well asking on Stack Overflow.

In the meantime, deploy Parse-Server-Example into Heroku & have a poke around. You might learn a little more about the setup & issue with a working example to have a poke around with.

@christianbalderrama I'm closing this issue for not being related to Parse Server itself. Please ask the question on Stack Overflow or ServerFault.com and post the link here for reference.

I personally recommend you checking out MongoDB Atlas, MongoDB's database as a service product. It might be more reliable and enough for your needs.
