MongoDB Connection Refused, installation - mongodb

I am new with mongoDB, I have just installed mongoDB following this doucumantation and when i try to run using mongo i get the following error

I also have started the database using systemctl start mongod
I also have uninstalled mongodb and reinstalled it again. I can't seem to figure out whats wrong.

In your config file the processManagement section should be like this:
# how the process runs
processManagement:
fork: true
pidFilePath: /var/run/mongodb/mongod.pid
timeZoneInfo: /usr/share/zoneinfo
Default for processManagement.fork = false, thus the service may not start.

MongoDB status failed after editing mongo.conf (code-exited, status=2)

I'm trying to connect remotely to my Google Cloud Server with Robo 3T to connect too MongoDB v4.0.11 just so I can see the data from windows.
I am running Ubuntu 18.04LTS Minimal. To enable remote connections to MongoDB I have first created both an administrative and root user in my admin database.
My problem is once I add authorization: "enabled" to security: in /etc/mongod.conf and restart MongoDB, I get the following status when running $:systemctl status mongod

It appears there is an invalid argument in /etc/mongod.conf but from what I have read online I can't see the problem.
wrong:
#security:
authorization: "enabled"
correct:
security:
authorization: enabled
For the 4.x release it appears you need to modify the existing security section you have listed
#security:
authorization: "enabled"
And replace it with security.authorization: enabled or
security:
authorization: "enabled"
You should then be able to reload and test authentication is working as expected.
If you dig into the docs you will find the relevant section here.
security.authorization
Type: string
Default: disabled
Enable or disable Role-Based Access Control (RBAC) to govern each user’s access to database resources and operations.
Set this option to one of the following:
Value Description
enabled A user can access only the database resources and actions for which they have been granted privileges.
disabled A user can access any database and perform any action.
In my case the problem was that I used a tab to indent the authorization: enabled line. When I replaced the tab with 2 spaces it worked.

Always get "Active: failed" on 'sudo systemctl status mongod' command

I followed this link to install MongoDB on my machine. Everything was fine and it worked.
Currently, when I run sudo systemctl status mongod, I get this error:

This is what I have done after it was ok, that might have caused the problem:
I decided to add mongodb extension using pecl.
I was not able to make a new database, neither by MongodDB Compassm, nor by Sell.
I uninstalled it.
I installed it from the same link and ran the same commands, but when I wanted to install it again, after running sudo apt-key adv --keyserver hkp://keyserver.ubuntu.com:80 --recv 0C49F3730359A14518585931BC711F9BA15703C6
command, I got gpg: unchanged: 1 at the end, not gpg: imported: 1 (RSA: 1) which I got for the first time.
I even deleted and recreated my dbPath folder (/var/lib/mongodb) which seems that the problem is somehow associated with this parameter which is on /etc/mongod.conf.
When I run sudo systemctl status mongod, I still get Active: failed.
What should I do to run MongoDB properly again and make its status Active: Running?
Update: This is my /etc/mongod.conf file:
# mongod.conf
# for documentation of all options, see:
# http://docs.mongodb.org/manual/reference/configuration-options/

I solved the problem by uninstalling MongoDB and installing a specific version of MongoDB, not the latest version, using this link. This might not be the actual solution but works for now.

MongoDB doesn't start

A few days ago I decided to use mongodb for a project. but I still don't make it work.
If I'm try to start mongodb with the following command:
sudo mongod --config=/etc/mongod.conf
This is the result:
about to fork child process, waiting until server is ready for connections.
forked process: 4539
child process started successfully, parent exiting
this is my mongod.conf:

Unable to start MongoDB after changing the data directory

I have installed with the help of following link: https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-install-mongodb-on-ubuntu-16-04
It was working fine by default. But when I change data directory in /etc/mongod.conf

I am new to MongoDB. Maybe I am missing something very simple.
From the MongoDB config file documentation page
The Linux package init scripts included in the official MongoDB packages depend on specific values for systemLog.path, storage.dbpath, and processManagement.fork. If you modify these settings in the default configuration file, mongod may not start.
So if you modify these properties in the configuration file, you most probably have to write a new init script.

The root issue is selinux permissions, which is enabled by default in CentOS 7. This can be fixed by disabling selinux or adding the correct context to the mongo database path:
chcon -R -t mongod_var_lib_t /var/lib/mongod
