So, first and regardless of Rocket, is Mongo 5 is now EOL. > **[MongoDB Software Lifecycle Schedules](https://www.mongodb.com/legal/support-policy/lifecycles)** > > MongoDB Software Lifecycle Schedules Next is if it actually shows `℅` and not the version it may be related to this (there may be others - have a search) - I’m not sure what error logic/version check they use.

Will speak with internal engineering teams, but yes, Mongo 5 has reached end of life and hence the deprecation. > **[MongoDB Software Lifecycle Schedules](https://www.mongodb.com/legal/support-policy/lifecycles)** > > MongoDB Software Lifecycle Schedules ---

Oficial reference is → [https://docs.rocket.chat/docs/support-prerequisites#mongodb-versions](https://docs.rocket.chat/docs/support-prerequisites#mongodb-versions) a more descriptive answer that I got from a co-worker on the matter: “the idea behind the message is not keep tracking of EOL mongo databases. but inform that rocket.chat no longer offer support. which means no tests or no fixe, in case of bugs found in this specific version. so you should upgrade.”
