MongoDB: How to find the exact version of installed MongoDB

I have mongoDB 3.2 installed locally for Windows 7. I would like to find out its specific version (like is it 3.2.1, or 3.2.3 or...). How could I find it? If I open the database shell (mongo.exe), I can see it outputs:

MongoDB shell version: 3.2.0

But that's just the shell version, and I'm not sure whether it's the same as my real database version.

Solution 1:

Just run your console and type:

db.version()

https://docs.mongodb.com/manual/reference/method/db.version/

Solution 2:

Option1:

Start the console and execute this:

db.version()

Option2:

Open a shell console and do:

$ mongod --version

It will show you something like

$ mongod --version
db version v3.0.2

Solution 3:

To check MongoDB version use the mongod command with --version option.

To check the MongoDB Server version, Open the command line via your terminal program and execute the following command:

Path: C:\Program Files\MongoDB\Server\3.2\bin
Open Cmd and execute the following command:
mongod --version
To Check MongoDB Shell version:
mongo --version

Solution 4:

From the Java API:

Document result = mongoDatabase.runCommand(new Document("buildInfo", 1));
String version = (String) result.get("version");
List<Integer> versionArray = (List<Integer>) result.get("versionArray");

Solution 5:

mongo --version

MongoDB shell version: 2.6.10

mongod --version

db version v2.6.10

mongo

MongoDB shell version: 2.6.10
connecting to: test

db.version()

2.6.10
