I absolutely catch no ball with that issue :-) It doesn't speak of any solution that works. So as of now MongoDB is out of DF 2.0? haha my application uses mongodb for most of the data...and this is like hitting a brick wall :-/

@m-menon thanks for reopening that: It is the same for me, DF doesn't make a lot of sense without mongo, like a swiss army knife where the knife itself is not usable anymore

Hi m-menon,

DF does support mongodb out of the box, unfortunately openshift installer can't prompt the user for a db option so we made MySQL the default. Only issue is openshift doesn't support php 5.5 out of the box, so we had to do a custom install of nginx and php which by the looks of it doesn't have the mongodb module installed. But you have full access to the cartridge source and ssh access to allow you to install the module or even re compile mongo db.

cool thanks. If there are some cues on how to install the module, that will be good cos this is my first encounter with Openshift and MongoDB combo. Recompiling mongodb would be a bit ambitious for now cos I only got the first instance of mongoDB on mongolabs just a few days back - so my experience kinda lacks in that area. Btw I totally understand the constraints with Openshift and not having php 5.5 limitation...but after having seen the dreamfactory hosted version and the support for mongodb, the whole design was centered around that and now a lot of things now need to be redesigned or reconsidered.....haiz :-D
