I want to start strapi cms in the browser but Tells me :
Make sure your MongoDB database is running
In the event MongoDB is running
How can I solve this problem?
Mongod & mongo is running
I had the same problem and I had to update mongo to 3.6, stop the mongod service using
$ sudo service mongod stop
and run mongod in a terminal and leave it open.
$ mongod
The next time it seemed to recognise the mongo service started by the command
$ sudo service mongod start
Go to your project file.
go to the config/environments/development folder and click on database.json. for username and password you leave it empty. and host you put 127.0.0.1 port: 27017 as in the picture
if you have finished the modifications you open two terminal:
on the first you start mongoDB by doing:
mongod
and once mongoDB has started you start on the other console strapi by making:
strapi start or npm start
Try removing the new plugins (if any) that you have installed.
I have faced this issue 2 times
Once I installed strapi command plugin
Another time I installed seo plugin.
I do no the root cause. But removing those packages and re-installed worked.

If someone can provide some insights here I would GREATLY appreciate it.
I had a express/node.js app running on MongoDB locally successfully, but upon restarting my computer, I attempted to restart the Mongo server and it began giving errors and wouldn't start. Since then, I have re-installed Mongo several times only to find the same error occurring. this is what I am receiving:
privee:mongodb-osx-x86_64-2.4.6 jonlinton$ ./bin/mongo
MongoDB shell version: 2.4.6
connecting to: test
Mon Aug 26 14:48:47.168 Error: couldn't connect to server 127.0.0.1:27017 at src/mongo/shell/mongo.js:145
exception: connect failed
Am I missing a step? Should I be creating a config file?
If you have installed mongodb through homebrew then you can simply start mongodb through (mongodb-community if installted mongodb-community
brew services start mongodb
OR
brew services start mongodb-community
Then access the shell by
mongo
You can shut down your db by
brew services stop mongodb
You can restart your db by
brew services restart mongodb
For more options
brew info mongodb
Updated answer (9/2/2019):
Homebrew has removed mongodb formula from its core repository, see this pull request.
The new way to install mongodb using Homebrew is as follows:
~> brew tap mongodb/brew
~> brew install mongodb-community
After installation you can start the mongodb service by following the caveats:
~> brew info mongodb-community
mongodb/brew/mongodb-community: stable 4.2.0
High-performance, schema-free, document-oriented database
https://www.mongodb.com/
Not installed
From: https://github.com/mongodb/homebrew-brew/blob/master/Formula/mongodb-community.rb
==> Caveats
To have launchd start mongodb/brew/mongodb-community now and restart at login:
brew services start mongodb/brew/mongodb-community
Or, if you don't want/need a background service you can just run:
mongod --config /usr/local/etc/mongod.conf
Deprecated answer (8/27/2019):
I assume you are using Homebrew. You can see the additional information that you need using brew info $FORMULA
~> brew info mongo 255
mongodb: stable 2.4.6, devel 2.5.1
http://www.mongodb.org/
/usr/local/Cellar/mongodb/2.4.5-x86_64 (20 files, 287M) *
Built from source
From: https://github.com/mxcl/homebrew/commits/master/Library/Formula/mongodb.rb
==> Caveats
To reload mongodb after an upgrade:
launchctl unload ~/Library/LaunchAgents/homebrew.mxcl.mongodb.plist
launchctl load ~/Library/LaunchAgents/homebrew.mxcl.mongodb.plist
Caveats is what you need to follow after installation.
Assuming you have created the data/db directory under bin after install.
Start a terminal for your mongo server
Go to <mongodb-install-directory>/bin directory
Run the command
./mongod
Start a terminal for your mongo shell
Go to <mongodb-install-directory>/bin directory
Run the command (make sure you put the name of the database)
./mongo test
Problem here is you are trying to open a mongo shell without starting a mongo db which is listening to port 127.0.0.1:27017(deafault for mongo db) thats what the error is all about:
Error: couldn't connect to server 127.0.0.1:27017 at src/mongo/shell/mongo.js:145 exception: connect failed
The easiest solution is to open the terminal and type
$ mongod --dbpath ~/data/db
Note: dbpath here is "Users/user" where data/db directories are created
i.e., you need to create directory data and sub directory db in your user folder.
For e.g say `
/Users/johnny/data
After mongo db is up. Open another terminal in new window and type
$ mongo
it will open mongo shell with your mongo db connection opened in another terminal.
Mac Installation:
Install brew
ruby -e "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/master/install)"
Update and verify you are good with
brew update
brew doctor
Install mongodb with
brew install mongodb
Create folder for mongo data files:
mkdir -p /data/db
Set permissions
sudo chown -R `id -un` /data/db
Open another terminal window & run and keep running a mongo server/daemon
mongod
Return to previous terminal and run a mongodb shell to access data
mongo
To quit each of these later:
The Shell:
quit()
The Server
ctrl-c
For those that could be facing the same problem and the solutions suggested above aren't working, for example in my case, I had installed mongodb-community, so you might wanna run the command below to restart your mongo server.
For those that installed mongodb-community using brew
brew services start mongodb-community
additionally you may want mongo to run on another port, then paste this command on terminal,
mongod --dbpath /data/db/ --port 27018
where 27018 is the port we want mongo to run on
assumptions
mongod exists in your bin i.e /usr/local/bin/ for mac ( which would be if you installed with brew), otherwise you'd need to navigate to the path where mongo is installed
the folder /data/db/ exists
mongo => mongo-db console
mongodb => mongo-db server
If you're on Mac and looking for a easier way to start/stop your mongo-db server, then MongoDB Preference Pane is something that you should look into. With it, you start/stop your mongo-db instance via UI. Hope it helps!
Make sure you are logged in as root user in your terminal.
Steps to start mongodb server in your mac
Open Terminal
Run the command sudo su
Enter your administrator password
run the command mongod
MongoDb Server starts
Hope it helps you.
Thanks
Nothing less likely to be outdated that the official docs: https://docs.mongodb.com/manual/tutorial/install-mongodb-on-os-x/
What worked for me on MacOS 12.6.1:
Go to Homebrew copy the "Install Brew " link from there , paste and run .run
To check the version of brew
brew
or
brew -v
then
brew tap mongodb/brew
brew install mongodb-community
sudo mkdir -p /System/Volumes/Data/data/db
sudo chown -R `id -un` /System/Volumes/Data/data/db
sudo mongod --dbpath /System/Volumes/Data/data/db
this would run your MongoDB .
Download MongoDB and install it on your local machine.
Link https://www.mongodb.com/try/download/enterprise
Extract the file and put it on the desktop.
Create another folder where you want to store the data. I have created mongodb-data folder.
Then run the below command.
Desktop/mongodb/bin/mongod --dbpath=/Users/yourname/Desktop/mongodb-data/
Before the hyphen is the executable path of your mongoDB and after hyphen is your data store.
I'm trying to create a new collection in an already existing mongodb database on an ubuntu server. I tried running the command mongod but it says the mongod not found
Make sure your mongo server is running:
you can start using command sudo service mongod restart . Once it started just type mongo , It will take you in mongo console.
Try mongo.
mongod is the one that starts the server. mongo is the client that connects to the server.
If your environment variable is set correctly, it should work.
If it still says command not found, try /usr/bin/mongo
You can find more info here: https://docs.mongodb.com/manual/mongo/
I have been trying to install MongoDB and have been following instructions on the Mongo docs, I am trying to start Mongo and I get this error
It appears as if it says that the "addr already in use"? I restarted my server and this still comes up I am unsure what to do next.
Stop the active mongod server and try it again:
sudo service mongod stop
sudo mongod
I have two Azure virtual machines. On one I have a Mongo server, on the other I just have a service I created which listens to Twitters streaming API and filters tweets.
Neither of these two services work unless I manually activate them and keep my console window open. For example, to run Mongo I need to ssh into my virtual machine and type: mongod --config /etc/mongod.conf. This starts the Mongo server successfully, but if at anytime I close my browser the service stops.
I believe the reason this is occurring is because when I login the system is allocating me a process by which I can navigate around the system and perform commands. When I type mongod --config /etc/mongod.conf I believe I am using that process to run Mongo. I am not sure how to make Mongo run without doing this though.
How do I make it so Mongo runs automatically all the time on my Azure server?
EDIT:
I tried running Mongo as a daemon but I receive an error:
$ mongod --fork --logpath /var/log/mongodb.log
>>>about to fork child process, waiting until server is ready for connections.
>>>forked process: 63470
>>>ERROR: child process failed, exited with error number 1
This issue has nothing to do with Azure; it's all about how you install MongoDB.
If you install mongodb as a service, via apt-get (or whatever other means your version of linux requires), then it will run independent of you being logged in. You shouldn't be running an always-on service through your command shell.
Here are instructions for installing under Ubuntu. You'll see that, once you set up the prerequisite public key and list file, you then run:
sudo apt-get install -y mongodb-org
You can then start and stop the service via
sudo service mongod start
and
sudo service mongod stop
You can enable mongo to autostart on boot by typing this command in your console:
sudo systemctl enable mongod
Then test it by this command:
sudo service mongod status
I'm getting the following error when I try to run "mongod" in the terminal. I've tried uninstalling, reinstalling, and restarting the machine. Any suggestions on how to get it working would be amazing.
ERROR:
dbpath (/data/db) does not exist.
Create this directory or give existing directory in --dbpath.
See http://dochub.mongodb.org/core/startingandstoppingmongo
Side note:
Node also stopped working on my machine around the same time that I got this error.
events.js:72
throw er; // Unhandled 'error' event
^
Error: failed to connect to [localhost:27017]
Any help would be much appreciated!
This should work to ensure that the directory is set up in the right place so that Mongo can find it:
sudo mkdir -p /data/db/
sudo chown `id -u` /data/db
You need to create the directory on root /data/db or set any other path with the following command :
mongod --dbpath /srv/mongodb/
See the example link
I solved the problem with :
sudo mongod --dbpath=/var/lib/mongodb and then mongo to access the mongodb Shell.
Change the user of the new data directory:
chown mongodb [rute_directory]
And try another time to start the mongo service
service mongod start
I solve the same problem with this.
Daemons (usually ending with d) are normally started as services. Starting the service (daemon) will allow mongodb to work as designed (without permission changes if integrates well with your distro). I start it using the service named mongodb instead of starting mongod directly--on distro with systemd enable on startup then run like:
sudo systemctl enable mongodb
sudo systemctl start mongodb
or, on distro with upstart (if you have /etc/init) or init (if you have /etc/init.d) ( https://www.tecmint.com/systemd-replaces-init-in-linux/ ) instead run:
sudo service mongodb enable
sudo service mongodb start
If you have a distro with rc ("run commands") such as Gentoo (settings in /etc/init.d) (https://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-854138-start-0.html) run:
rc-update add mongodb default
/etc/init.d/mongodb start
In a distro/version of FreeBSD which still has rc (check whether your version switched to systemd, otherwise see below):
add the following line to /etc/rc.conf:
mongod_enable="YES"
then:
sudo service mongod start
After starting the service, an unpriveleged user can use mongo, and each user will have separate data.
I also got the error that "The file /data/db doesn't exist" when I tried to save my file using the "mkdir -p /data/db" command(using both with and without sudo command). But later on one site, a person named Emil answered that the path "/data/db" no longer works on Mac, so use "~/data/db" instead
i.e., use the command
mkdir -p ~/data/db
instead of previous command.
Moreover, use
mongod --dbpath ~/data/db
to run mongod
It worked for me, hope it work for others too facing the same problem
