MongoDB wouldn't run as a service on Windows 7 - mongodb

Question

I have the issue with running MongoDB 3.0 service in Windows 7.
I have created the data/db and data/log inside MongoDB root and configured mongod.conf file:
Edited
# mongod.conf
# for documentation of all options, see:
# http://docs.mongodb.org/manual/reference/configuration-options/
# where to write logging data.
systemLog:
destination: file
logAppend: true
path: C:\Program Files\MongoDB\data\log\mongod.log
# Where and how to store data.
storage:
dbPath: C:\Program Files\MongoDB\data\db
journal:
enabled: true
# engine:
# mmapv1:
# wiredTiger:
# how the process runs
processManagement:
fork: true
pidFilePath: C:\Program Files\MongoDB\mongod.pid
# network interfaces
# net:
# port: 27017
# bindIp: 127.0.0.1 # Listen to local interface only, comment to listen on all interfaces.

#replication:
#sharding:

#auditLog:
#snmp:
Then I have created a windows service which will run the mongodb on startup:
sc.exe create MongoDB binPath= "C:\MongoDB\bin\mongod.exe
--service --config=C:\MongoDB\mongod.conf" displayname= "MongoDB 3.0 Standard"
start= "auto"
I have tried also:
sc.exe create MongoDB binPath= "\"C:\MongoDB\bin\mongod.exe\" --service --config=\"C:\MongoDB\mongod.conf\"" DisplayName= "MongoDB" start= "auto"
MongoDB service properties show me path to executable:
C:\MongoDB\bin\mongod.exe --service --config=C:\MongoDB\mongod.conf
Attempts to run service(net start MongoDB) show me error message:
The service is not responding to the control function.
More help is available by typing NET HELPMSG 2186.
I know this issue is quite popular but most of solutions led to wrong paths, file names/extensions which don't solve my problem.
UPDATE:
Suggestion to create windows service under specified user doesn't help me as well (the same message during service start):
C:\Users\Administrator>sc.exe create MongoDB binPath= "C:\MongoDB\bin\mongod.exe
--service --config=C:\MongoDB\mongod.conf" displayname= "MongoDB 3.0 Standard"
start= "auto" obj= ".\Administrator" password= "#gdgsfg1"
Moreover, I have tried to specify username and password via services.msc -> MongoDB -> Properties->Log on
Windows Event log:
Error 6.05.2015 19:54:25 Service Control Manager 7009 None
A timeout was reached (30000 milliseconds) while waiting for the MongoDB service to connect.
Error 6.05.2015 19:54:25 Service Control Manager 7000 None
The MongoDB service failed to start due to the following error:
The service did not respond to the start or control request in a timely fashion.

Answer 1

I have found the solution why MongoDB service doesn't start successfully.
First of all, install windows mongodb service by this way to see all kind of errors with your YAML config file or anything else during service install(sc.exe doesn't provide enough ifnormation during mongodb service install):
mongod.exe --config "C:\Program Files\MongoDB\mongod.cfg" --install
Actually, my issue was with processManagement.fork option which is not exist in Windows since it causes error Unrecognized processManagement.fork option. So, I have remove this option from my config file and service starts fine.
The final config file:
systemLog:
destination: file
logAppend: true
path: C:\Program Files\MongoDB\data\log\mongod.log
timeStampFormat: iso8601-utc
storage:
dbPath: C:\Program Files\MongoDB\data\db
journal:
enabled: true
processManagement:
pidFilePath: C:\Program Files\MongoDB\mongod.pid
net:
port: 27017
bindIp: 127.0.0.1
