Still running MongoDB 4.0 or older? The standard VisuaLeaf installers support MongoDB 4.2 to 9.0 and cannot connect to anything earlier. This page has the build that can.
VisuaLeaf's standard installers are compiled against the current MongoDB driver, which supports MongoDB 4.2 to 9.0. On an older server they fail to connect rather than degrade, which is why the legacy build is published separately.
MongoDB 4.2 to 9.0
Use the standard installers — they get every release first and support every current MongoDB feature.
Go to the main download pageMongoDB 4.0 or older
Use the build below. It is the same VisuaLeaf on the legacy driver, tested and supported on MongoDB 3.4 to 5.0.
Jump to the downloadsWhat each build supports
| Standard build | Legacy build (this page) | |
|---|---|---|
| Oldest server it can connect to | MongoDB 4.2 | MongoDB 3.4 |
| Tested and supported | MongoDB 4.2 to 9.0 | MongoDB 3.4 to 5.0 |
| MongoDB 6.0 and newer | Fully supported | Usually connects and works for everyday browsing and queries, but it is not tested, and features that live in the driver (Queryable Encryption, OIDC login) are not available |
| VisuaLeaf releases | Every release, first | Updated less often; catches up with the standard build periodically |
Not sure which you have?
Connect with mongosh (or the legacy mongo shell) and run:
db.version()Anything starting 4.0, 3.6, 3.4 or lower needs the build on this page. 4.2 or newer uses the standard installers.
Loading the current 3.4 build…
Older releases stay online. If a deployment is pinned to a particular version, you can always download exactly that one.
MongoDB 4.0 and everything before it are past end-of-life and no longer receive security fixes from MongoDB. The legacy build keeps you working in the meantime, but it is a bridge rather than a destination: it tracks an older driver, so it supports MongoDB 3.4 up to 5.0; servers newer than that are not tested or supported. Once your server reaches 4.2 or newer, switch to the standard installers and you will pick up releases as they ship.
