You need Lua 5.2 to install the current version of luamongo. In case you want to use it with Lua 5.1, you had to use the revission v0.2:

Sorry. I am not very familiar with LUA. I found the LUA 5.1 for windows in https://code.google.com/p/luaforwindows/downloads/list

The lua 5.2 seems to be available for linux not windows.

And i tried to download v0.2, but i am not sure how to use it. Do u have any set of instructions

Unfortunatelly, I'm not a windows expert, so I can't tell you how to install luamongo in windows... However, the steps to install luamongo (in any platform) are:

  1. Install the mongo c++ driver, its legacy-v0.9.0: https://github.com/mongodb/mongo-cxx-driver/
  2. Compile luamongo.
  3. Install luamongo at any place in packages.path Lua string.

Let me know if you succeed with it. I will be very glad to know the steps necessary to install it in windows, just to write them in the wiki.
