Hey so how is it going with this?
The prior version of Rocket.Chat should be available. I haven’t gotten to building the latest.
But building from the CI apparently is out of the question because of all of the issues mentioned above. 
will there be some new snap builds for the raspberry?
Yes, we are preparing for a snap build that will support the latest Rocket.Chat version including the upcoming 1.0
It is working already and we are testing. If you can test, please join our enthusiast channel here:
Hello all!
Sorry for bumping this thread but I just noticed that the armhf snap build or Rocket.chat is 1.0.3 (stable), while it is 3.1.1 on my amd64 server. I wondered:
- Are the two versions developped in parallel, or is the 1.0.3 an old version?
- If it’s an old version, any idea if the features of the 3.1.1 are much different from the 1.0.3?
- Is there a way to install the 3.1.1 on a Raspberry Pi 3 (or for if needed)?
Thank you for these newbie questions.
Take care!
EDIT: I found this post where it says that no newer version will be released anymore on armhf architecture due to mongodb incompatibility. I just have to find how to install a arm64 debian on my pi then, glups ^^.
Yup unfortunately armhf is stuck because of mongo 
Yup 
. But I could succeed (quite easily I have to admit) to install a Debian arm64 on my Pi. Just the Rocket.Chat backup solution didn’t succeed in restoring the config. I followed this tuto. I Succeeded to restore it once on my test server, but after, when I tried to restore it on my main Pi board, no way… First is starts correctly, but after 5 min it tries to connect to the login page indefinitely. I checked the logs and the server seems to be alive. Anyway, no problem I made a new config. An now I am bakcuping the entire Debian system just in case 
.
I’m running rocket.chat on my Raspberry 4 (32-bit, Arch Linux).
Has anyone else gotten this message recently? It’s only appeared in the last week or so.
MongoDB Deprecated
MongoDB version 3.2.15 is deprecated, please upgrade your installation.
Obviously, I can’t upgrade my installation, but I’m unsure why the message is occurring now, since presumably rocket.chat is also stuck on an old version (1.3.2). I would have thought the old rocket.chat version wouldn’t check for this. (And snap can’t tell me when the last update was.)
Have you found some solution? It seems liek if the arm architecture is in snap abandoned…
If you are running 32 bit - there will be no solution. The restriction is due to MongoDB as stated earlier by @aaron.ogle.
If you are on Raspberry Pi 4 - you can EASILY run 64 bit Raspbian and have access to later releases.
On Pi - you can generally ignore the MongoDB deprecation messages.
I’m not sure if “EASILY” is quite accurate. For anyone else thinking about this, I’ve done a bit of research, and the 64-bit version of Raspbian (now called “Raspberry Pi OS”) was only released seven weeks ago [1]. It’s still in beta, and they don’t recommend installing it [2]. There are several issues such as missing packages [3], and missing kernel headers [4]. 64 bit has been possible in ArchARM for a bit longer (at least 10 months), but it still seems a bit unstable [5].
