Ubuntu 16.04 and MongoDB 4.0
First, remove any existing repository file for MongoDB.
sudo rm /etc/apt/sources.list.d/mongodb*.list
Next, add the key: (without the key, the repository will not load)
sudo apt-key adv --keyserver hkp://keyserver.ubuntu.com:80 --recv E52529D4
Now, create a new MongoDB repository list file:
sudo bash -c 'echo "deb http://repo.mongodb.org/apt/ubuntu xenial/mongodb-org/4.0 multiverse" > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/mongodb-org-4.0.list'
Complete the installation with update of repositories then install:
sudo apt update
sudo apt install mongodb-org
Enable the mongod
service and start it up:
systemctl enable mongod.service
systemctl start mongod.service
Check your mongodb version:
~$ mongo --version

Going by this tutorial your
/etc/apt/sources.list.d/10gen.list
file should look like this:deb http://downloads-distro.mongodb.org/repo/ubuntu-upstart dist 10gen
Make sure you add their repository signing key:
sudo apt-key adv --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv 7F0CEB10
Then:
sudo apt-get update
andsudo apt-get install mongodb-10gen
.
