        I was going to post this over the long weekend as I was doing a distribution update and had the same issue.

        Once I saw Ubiquity said to not use 3.6 I just reverted to 17.04

        I thought 17.10 was still 3.4 as well. Maybe not.

          This worked but make sure that when you say to do this:

          mv /usr/bin/mongod mongod.bin
          

          Be sure to be on the /usr/bin folder when doing so or do the following

          mv /usr/bin/mongod /usr/bin/mongod.bin

            I know what you are trying to say, but saying it like that is clear as mud..

                this is a basic file move command. the source and destination are always relative to your pwd.

                It is totally poor form to discuss file source and destinations without clearly stating where to start, or explicitly noting them.

                You also used the word "on" instead of "in" and did not syntax highlight what you are talking about.

                Now based on the OP, and the lack of telling a user to be in the /usr/bin folder, the assumed intention here is to move and rename the existing /usr/bin/mongod to ~/mongod.bin

                You are unclearly trying to state that you simply need to rename mongod to mongod.bin while keeping it in the /usr/bin/ folder.

                @scottalanmiller needs to clarify his intent in the OP.

                  Reason for me to revisit this post was due to the following Ubiquiti forum post

                    Scott, why did you go with Ubuntu vs. Fedora? (Asking for a friend)

                      There are no official Unifi installers for RHEL or Fedora distributions.

                            Yeah, I followed your video and have mine on Debian, that's why I was wondering why Ubuntu.

                              Because it's the official OS of the product. Absolutely no reason to use Fedora here. Unifi only supports Ubuntu and Debian, and Jared and I have opposite views here. Ubuntu is the business product of the Debian family, Debian is the hobby project that is used as the basis for it. Debian is great, I love the project and they do great work, but it doesn't have primary vendor support, you are at the mercy of a hobby project. Ubuntu uses that basis and turns it into a production ready release with vendor and market support options.

                              Ubuntu isn't Fedora, but it's still extremely good.
