到mongodb官方網站http://www.mongodb.org/downloads下載mongodb，解壓并將目錄考到需要安裝的服務器上，然后進行配置。例如：
[root@SHNHDX17-165 mongodb]# mkdir data
[root@SHNHDX17-165 mongodb]# mkdir logs
[root@SHNHDX17-165 mongodb]# cd logs
[root@SHNHDX17-165 logs]# touch mongodb.log
port=27017 【代表端口號，如果不指定則默認為 27017 】
dbpath=/root/data/web/mongodb/data/ 【數據庫路徑】
logpath=/root/data/web/mongodb/logs/mongodb.log 【日志路徑】
logappend=true 【日志文件自動累加，而不是覆蓋】
[root@SHNHDX17-164 mongodb]# bin/mongo localhost:27017
MongoDB shell version: 2.4.5
connecting to: localhost:27017/test
