Try these command in terminal :

1. $ wget https://downloads.mongodb.com/compass/mongodb-compass_1.12.1_amd64.deb; (Try to get the latest one)

2. $ sudo dpkg -i mongodb-compass_1.12.1_amd64.deb

  1.  $ mongodb-compass;

Worked for me.I'm also using Ubuntu 18.10

(Try to change the version of the mongodb compass - lower than 15- v)

  2. sudo apt install --fix-broken install
  3. sudo dpkg -i mongodb-compass_1.29.6_amd64.deb
  4. mongodb-compass

I hope this will help someone else there.

We just released Compass 1.18-beta.1, Compass will work again on Ubuntu 18.10 and other recent Linux distributions. You can download it from here: https://www.mongodb.com/download-center/compass.

I had the same issue with ubuntu 18.10. This issue still exists with versions 15 and 16. Earlier versions works fine in ubuntu 18.10.

1) wget https://downloads.mongodb.com/compass/mongodb-compass_1.14.1_amd64.deb

2) sudo dpkg -i mongodb-compass_1.14.1_amd64.deb

3) mongodb-compass

It is not allowed to download a full version on this way, it can only be done for the community versions, f.e:

1) wget https://downloads.mongodb.com/compass/mongodb-compass-community_1.15.1_amd64.deb

This you can download, but has the same problem.

I downloaded the mongodb-compass-community_1.12.1_amd64.deb with wget. I installed it with dpkg -i, and it works.
