Hi, **Here is the log:** ```auto Error establishing direct connection to mongo node at [127.0.0.1:27017]. Error output: no reachable servers ``` I tried a lot of things, but after so many days, I can't find it work. **Here is my mongodb.yml configuration** ```auto # Module: mongodb # Docs: https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/beats/metricbeat/7.10/metricbeat-module-mongodb.html - module: mongodb metricsets: - dbstats # - status # - collstats # - metrics # - replstatus period: 10s # The hosts must be passed as MongoDB URLs in the format: # [mongodb://][user:pass@]host[:port]. # The username and password can also be set using the respective configuration # options. The credentials in the URL take precedence over the username and # password configuration options. hosts: - "mongodb://127.0.0.1:27017" ``` It doesn't have a password. I verified it by running on local and also remote. The /etc/mongod.conf bind IP is set to 0.0.0.0. I verified that it can connect outside using this command. ```auto mongosh mongodb://18.191.206.XXX:27017 ``` I am using MongoDB version 4, I tried using MongoDB version6 but it doesn't work as well. My Metricbeat Version is OSS 7.2 Here is the fulll error log: ```auto 2022-08-31T21:40:21.476Z INFO [esclientleg] eslegclient/connection.go:314 Attempting to connect to Elasticsearch version 7.10.2 2022-08-31T21:40:21.478Z INFO template/load.go:97 Template metricbeat-7.10.2 already exists and will not be overwritten. 2022-08-31T21:40:21.479Z INFO [index-management] idxmgmt/std.go:298 Loaded index template. 2022-08-31T21:40:21.480Z INFO [publisher_pipeline_output] pipeline/output.go:151 Connection to backoff(elasticsearch(https://elastic-wazuh.dts-nonprod.ardentcloud.com:9200)) established 2022-08-31T21:40:30.451Z ERROR mongodb/mongodb.go:98 Error establishing direct connection to mongo node at [127.0.0.1:27017].

Elasticsearch version 7.10 is [EOL](https://www.elastic.co/support/eol) and no longer supported. Please upgrade ASAP. (This is an automated response from your friendly Elastic bot. Please report this post if you have any suggestions or concerns :elasticheart: ) ---

is metricbeat running on the same host? The error message indicates nothing is running. Does providing the remote other IP address work? ---

Yes the **metricbeat** is running on the same host. ![1](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/elastic/original/3X/b/7/b71fc506721564a1a89507f4b600ce920085e0c8.png) The mongodb is also running on the same host. ![mongod](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/elastic/original/3X/5/9/59c1c0a7337ef3e7d7118afcfe3fff86202e8c01.png) Providing the more IP address doesn't work. ![fulllog](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/elastic/original/3X/7/2/72581773685d95e2fe9d0808c5e462e65f37037e.png) Accessing the mongodb locally and remotely does work, I tried testing it via mongosh. ---

Are you able to run mongosh on the localhost also? Also, Is it possible for you to upgrade the stack and see if this issue is only for older version. ---

Hi I've tried using a new instance and set up mongodb version 4.2, it does work now. ---
