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
