Extra

Taking a quick glance at the code, it looks like it's trying to extract OpenSUSE distribution numbered version, which is not specified in Tumbleweed (their rolling release version).

I dont quite know what you mean with that, but the issue was that our regex matching the ID was not allowing for dashes.
A new version will be released shortly, could you test it?

Thank you for the quick fix! It fixed the initial issue, however it doesn't work out of the box:

Starting the MongoMemoryServer Instance failed, enable debug log for more information. Error:

Looking more into it, there is official Mongo support for Tumbleweed, and trying to use suse-15 version won't work because of OpenSSL 1.1 (dropped in Tumbleweed).

As a workaround, I forced RHEL 9 version to get a similar build with OpenSSL 3, and it seems to work properly:

• MONGOMS_PLATFORM=linux
• MONGOMS_ARCH=x64_64
• MONGOMS_DISTRO=rhel-9

I'm not sure that it is something that would make sense to fix in this lib.

It fixed the initial issue, however it doesn't work out of the box:

I guess that is to be expected as *Suse's url generation is not very deep or tested, as i dont know the mapping or relations.

FYI, this is the current suse implementation:

mongodb-memory-server/packages/mongodb-memory-server-core/src/util/MongoBinaryDownloadUrl.ts

Lines 488 to 497 in efc8460

	/**
	* Get the version string for Suse / OpenSuse
	* @param os LinuxOS Object
	*/
	// TODO: add tests for getSuseVersionString
	getSuseVersionString(os: LinuxOS): string {
	const releaseMatch: RegExpMatchArray | null = os.release.match(/(^11|^12|^15)/);
	return releaseMatch ? `suse${releaseMatch[0]}` : '';
	}

I will re-open this as a general dist-support.
