Good day,
I used to be able to run mongo server on localhost from the shell with the command mongod --config /usr/local/etc/mongod.conf but unfortunately now the command silently fails.
if I try which mongod I will get /usr/local/bin/mongod. I have tried restarting my machine and doing brew uninstall mongodb followed by brew install mongodb but I get the same effect.
The contents of my config file located at /usr/local/etc/mongod.conf are as follows:
systemLog:
destination: file
path: /usr/local/var/log/mongodb/mongo.log
logAppend: true
storage:
dbPath: /usr/local/var/mongodb
net:
bindIp: 127.0.0.1
By the way if I try to run mongod without the --config option I get the following errors:
2016-11-28T11:01:01.288-0500 I CONTROL [initandlisten] MongoDB starting : pid=4895 port=27017 dbpath=/data/db 64-bit host=Danials-MacBook-Pro.local

Thanks
Log file clearly says that the data directory /data/db not found..
Please create the directory for data and start the mongod process.
In your case,the value given to the dbPath in your config file is the data folder.

On mac Catalina, /data/db is no longer writeable, and so the new brew install of mongodb-community uses a new path, /usr/local/var/mongodb. I upgraded, following these instructions:
https://docs.mongodb.com/manual/tutorial/install-mongodb-on-os-x/#install-mongodb-community-edition
and to confirm:
$ ls -al /usr/local/bin/mongod
lrwxr-xr-x 1 rkohr admin 44 Feb 5 10:49 /usr/local/bin/mongod -> ../Cellar/mongodb-community/4.2.3/bin/mongod
$ cat /usr/local/etc/mongod.conf
systemLog:
destination: file
path: /usr/local/var/log/mongodb/mongo.log
logAppend: true
storage:
dbPath: /usr/local/var/mongodb
net:
bindIp: 127.0.0.1
But it seems that the config is being ignored since it is still trying to use the old /data/db path:

#RobKohr To make it works, you have to run following command:
mongod --config /usr/local/etc/mongod.conf
See: https://docs.mongodb.com/manual/reference/configuration-options/#use-the-configuration-file
I have a problem that is really really really messing me up! I've got so many headaches. I updated the MongoDB package on my Ubuntu 16.04 machine today morning and since then I have been unable to get it to start (mongod). I narrowed down the problem to find out that the mongod daemon is trying to load the data path at /data/db yet my mongo.conf specifically states that the path is at /var/lib/mongodb.
What is going on? When I run mongod and set the path directly then the service starts up without any problem. But I do not want to keep doing that everytime I want to start it up. Someone please help me. Am I missing something in the configurations? Thanks for time and assistance. The error I get when I look at the logs:

Thanks guys!
EDIT: Some would say I should create the data directory in /data/db but what will happen to the data that I already have in the lib directory :(
I tried to start up my computer's mongodb service and it wouldn't start. I spent over an hour trying to debug it during which time I tried many solutions. Trying all of them may have messed up my mongo install, but I tried reinstalling mongo to get a fresh start. That didn't work either. I now have the following error and cannot find anything on google about how to fix it.

I'm running Ubuntu 16.04.
Here's the telling part of the log:
/var/lib/mongodb/journal/WiredTigerPreplog.0000000002: file-remove: unlink: Permission denied
So have a look at ls -la /var/lib/mongodb/journal and see what the permissions on those files are. I'm betting that those (an probably others) are not properly owned by the correct user, which is normally mongodb on Ubuntu.
Assuming you've got an issue with ownership there, you can just run chown -R mongodb:mongodb /var/lib/mongodb.
If that doesn't work, as a last resort you can always just wipe out your data directory (assuming you don't need your data!) by running rm -rf /var/lib/mongodb/*.
I try to run a mongod server and its giving a error comment it below :
i tried few comment kill port and lock file comments not it dosent work ..

You need to create the directory:
mkdir -p /data/db
This is because the directory '/data/db' you created is writable only by super user but you are trying to run as normal user. So, the following command
sudo chown -R $USER /data/db
makes you super user.
Now, try running
mongod.
MongoDB requires a data directory to store all data. MongoDB’s default data directory path is the absolute path \data\db on the drive from which you start MongoDB. Create this folder by running the following command in a Command Prompt
md \data\db
More detailed information given here.

For new arrivals, consider that your /etc/mongodb.conf file may be out of date. Did you copy it from a previous installation or modify it using outdated instructions?
For example, as of Mongo 4.2 the smallfiles option is no longer recognized and MongoDB will reject the conf file and resort to defaults ( i.e. /data/db ).
The configuration file documentation is here:
https://docs.mongodb.com/manual/reference/configuration-options/

I am new to this and I've tried researching on the error. However, I have no luck, including typing
sudo chmod 777
The only time mongod works is if I type sudo in front of it
sudo mongod
But I do not feel this is correct...
remove the mongod.lock file:
sudo rm /data/db/mongod.lock
