Looks like this was broken by the recent change to add a process killer script. I'll raise a PR with a fix imminently.
@hgcummings is this resolved now? if so, can you please close this ticket?
Yes, thank you, resolved since the release including the linked PR.
I think i'm still having this issue in Windows 10. I came to know mongodb-prebuilt via https://github.com/tmeasday/create-graphql-server/. What was the solution?
there was a big rewrite that fixed most of the issues since this issue was reported. i looked at https://github.com/tmeasday/create-graphql-server and i don't see in in package.json mongodb listed as dependency.
Uh you are right .. But doing yarn global add create-graphql-server comes with mongodb-prebuilt though. By the way, it comes with mongodb-prebuilt@^5.0.7. The only solution was to use an existing mongodb installation.
@dukuo 6.x is a complete rewrite in typescript, and that is the one that gets rid of --fork, which was breaking windows mongodb release. there is an API change in 6.x but very minor, in fact, if you know which package is using mongodb-prebuilt or mockgoose, I can do changes and submit a PR
