Here is my mongod.cfg
file:
bind_ip = 127.0.0.1
dbpath = C:\mongodb\data\db
logpath = C:\mongodb\log\mongo-server.log
verbose=v
Here is my mongod
service command:
mongod -f c:\mongodb\mongod.cfg --install
I have installed MongoDB about a week ago and it all worked fine, however today when I ran mongo
command I got the following error:
Failed to connect to 127.0.0.1:27017,
reason: errno:10061 No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it
How can I fix that? I use Windows 8.1
Solution:
I forgot to start mongodb service with this command:
net start mongodb
Improved solution:
1) Change directory to root drive C:\
, and type the command below into an admin cmd
prompt window,
C:\mongodb\bin\mongod.exe --config c:\mongodb\mongod.cfg --install
2) Then type net start MongoDB
after which you should see the following message:
"The Mongo DB service was started successfully"
3) Then go to the control panel Start>Administrative Tools>Services
, scroll down to MongoDB in the list of services and change start up type to automatic, if you so desire. Press OK.
4) Finally type C:\mongodb\bin\mongo.exe
and you should be connected to the Mongo test DB.

Try this, it worked for me.
mongod --storageEngine=mmpav1
If it writes that you had not properly shut down or that mongod.lock is not empty , only delete mongod.lock from C:\data\db\ and it will start.
When This Error is Coming it is lack of the following
1)Setting the path to mongo db go to "C" Drive and the installation of Mongo db directory and then go to bin folder in the mongo and copy the path of it
c:/mongodb/server/3.2/bin/ and create a new environmental variable in system properties then name is path and value="c:/mongodb/server/3.2/bin/" here my version is 3.2
2)create a data directory for the data in C Drive c:/Data/twitter
3)start the server with **
c:/> mongod
check your port config if there is any error as the local port may be assigned to any other 4)start your Mongo database with
Mongo then your mongo db will start
then in your mongo database create a database
use DATABASE_NAME
for example:
use twitterdata
switched to db twitterdata
to check your current database
db
twitterdata
to get total databases
show dbs
Under normal conditions, at least 3379 MB of disk space is needed. If you do not have that much space, to lower this requirement;
mongod.exe --smallfiles
This is not the only requirement. But this may be your problem.
I was also faced the same issue with mongodb 2.6.
What solved my problem was I just run mongod --repair
command
and then start mongod.exe
It's worked for me
The problem is that I missed out 'db' folder for the dbpath in the command:
C:\mongodb\bin> mongod --directoryperdb --dbpath C:\mongodb\data\db --logpath C:\mongodb\log\mongodb.log --logappend -rest --install
What solved my issue was creating a file startmongo.conf that sets the bind_ip to 127.0.0.1 . After that, I just created a *.bat to start the mongo using something like:
mongod --config c:\mongodb\bin\startmongo.conf
Point to your mongodb instalation e.g C:\Program Files\MongoDB\Serve\bin and run mongod.exe so you can open connection to 127.0.0.1:27017.
Change file permission to 755 for the file:
/var/lib/mongodb/mongod.lock
just create a folder
C:\data\db
Run below commands in command prompt
C:\Program Files\MongoDB\Server\3.4\bin>mongod
Open another command prompt
C:\Program Files\MongoDB\Server\3.4\bin>mongo
When you typed in the mongod command, did you also give it a path? This is usually the issue. You don't have to bother with the conf file. simply type
mongod --dbpath="put your path to where you want it to save the working area for your database here!! without these silly quotations marks I may also add!"
example: mongod --dbpath=C:/Users/kyles2/Desktop/DEV/mongodb/data
That is my path and don't forget if on windows to flip the slashes forward if you copied it from the or it won't work!
mongodb 2.6.8 on windows7 32bits you only need create a folder c:/data/db execute mongod, and execute mongo
The Port is not open. Thats why the machine refuses communication
first you run the command mongod and check weather the port 27017 has started or not if yes then hit the command mongo....and database will start.
Here are the steps to solve this issue:
I started mongod in cmd,It threw error like C:\data\db\ not found. Created folder then typed mongod opened another cmd typed mongo it worked.
