meteor-up deploy on Amazon EC not working, wait-for-mongo: failed to connect to [127.0.0.1:27017] - mongodb

Question

I have the following in my mup.json
// Install MongoDB in the server, does not destroy local MongoDB on future setup
"setupMongo": true,
// WARNING: Node.js is required! Only skip if you already have Node.js installed on server.
"setupNode": true,
// WARNING: If nodeVersion omitted will setup 0.10.36 by default. Do not use v, only version number.
"nodeVersion": "0.10.43",
// Install PhantomJS in the server
"setupPhantom": false,
// Show a progress bar during the upload of the bundle to the server.
// Might cause an error in some rare cases if set to true, for instance in Shippable CI
"enableUploadProgressBar": true,
// Application name (No spaces)
"appName": "myapp",
// Location of app (local directory)
"app": "/path/to/myapp",
// Configure environment
"env": {
"PORT": 5555,
"ROOT_URL": "http://myserver.com"
},
I got this in the deploy log

when I ssh to the ec2 server and it looks like mongod is not started?

I'm not sure how to gain access to mongo on the server, given that I "handed over" responsibility to meteor-up with "setup-mongo":true.
Any ideas would be appreciated.
update
switched to mupx, and set "deployCheckWaitTime": 300 mongo is now loading correctly. But now I am getting this error:
/bundle/bundle/programs/server/node_modules/fibers/future.js:278
throw(ex);

It seems to be related to these issues:

SOLVED
I must had incompatible versions on my system from using mup and also meteor create; meteor mongo earlier on the ec2 server. I linked /opt to an empty folder in a different partition (had space problems) and ran mupx setup/deploy again from scratch. This time it worked fine (with Meteor 1.3).
Strangely, I noticed there was no /opt/nodejs folder, which was probably a leftover from my first attempt with mup.
also, the docker daemon doesn't seem to be running, but I can connect to my mongoDB from an ssh session the mup way
$ mongo myapp // works fine
$ docker exec -it mongodb mongo myapp
Cannot connect to the Docker daemon. Is the docker daemon running on this host?
