I recently started learning MongoDB, and initially, I had no problems with Compass. However, after updating all packages using yay, Compass started malfunctioning.

When I run it, I first see a white screen, then the normal home page, but as soon as I try to move my mouse, the white screen reappears. I’ve tried refreshing the app, deleting and reinstalling a git version, and even manually deleting all Compass files, but I’m still experiencing the issue.

$ mongodb-compass --version
MongoDB Compass 1.40.2

Refreshing the app (Ctrl+Shift+R)

Deleting and reinstalling a git version $ yay -r mongodb-compass yay mongodb-compass-git

Manually deleting all Compass files
$ sudo rm -r /home/byalykt/.cache/yay/mongodb-compass
$ sudo rm -r /usr/bin/mongodb-compass $ sudo rm -r /usr/lib/mongodb-compass
$ sudo rm -r /usr/share/applications/mongodb-compass.desktop
$ sudo rm -r /usr/share/licenses/mongodb-compass

  2. The latest working version is v1.39.4. We can’t use yay to install a specific version, so you need to manually download the PKGBUILD.

    1. Uninstall mongodb-compass:
    sudo pacman -Rs mongodb-compass
    
    1. Create a new folder and a file called PKGBUILD with the following content:

    https://aur.archlinux.org/cgit/aur.git/tree/PKGBUILD?h=mongodb-compass&id=f681e3b15b0a946a584250d6f2499b0c9b2e102f

    1. Build and install:
    makepkg -si
