Mongo doesn't start on fresh install on Ubuntu 14.04 - mongodb

After installing mongodb on 14.04, mongo doesn't work out of the box:
$ sudo apt install mongodb-server
[...]
$ sudo start mongodb
mongodb stop/waiting
What's happening here, how can I fix it?

TL;DR: change no to yes in /etc/default/mongodb and restart the service
The interesting part is in the upstart script (/etc/init/mongodb.conf), at line 19 and 21:
[...]
script
ENABLE_MONGODB="yes"
if [ -f /etc/default/mongodb ]; then
. /etc/default/mongodb
fi
if [ "$ENABLE_MONGODB" = "yes" ]; then
exec start-stop-daemon --start --quiet --chuid mongodb \
--exec /usr/bin/mongod -- --config /etc/mongodb.conf
fi
end script
So if ENABLE_MONGODB is yes, mongod starts and everything is good. It is set to yes in the script, but /etc/default/mongodb is sourced.
A peek inside /etc/default/mongodb shows the problem:
ENABLE_MONGODB="no"
I don't know why this ships disabled, change it to yes and you'll be fine after a sudo restart mongodb.

mongodb is not running on my Ubuntu 20.04.3 LTS

I'm trying to follow a MongoDB example for learning matters.
The instructions say that after starting MongoDB I will have a mongodb terminal so I can create a database and make it the active one.
The problem is that I start mongodb but I don't have the application terminal, it runs but at the end I have the ubuntu's terminal.
I followed this https://docs.mongodb.com/manual/tutorial/install-mongodb-on-os-x/ to install Mongo:
pip install pymongo
wget -qO - https://www.mongodb.org/static/pgp/server-5.0.asc | sudo apt-key add -
echo "deb [ arch=amd64,arm64 ] https://repo.mongodb.org/apt/ubuntu focal/mongodb-org/5.0 multiverse" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/mongodb-org-5.0.list
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install -y mongodb-org
I also installed COMPASS, this is running correctly
wget https://downloads.mongodb.com/compass/mongodb-compass_1.26.1_amd64.deb
sudo dpkg -i mongodb-compass_1.26.1_amd64.deb
mongodb-compass
I'm starting Mongo
sudo systemctl start mongod #this do something but takes me back to the terminal prompt.
mongosh #is launching this "MongoNetworkError: connect ECONNREFUSED 127.0.0.1:27017"
Definitely I'm doing something wrong but I cannot identify it.
Does anyone have an idea?
Thanks in advance

Starting services at container startup

I'm trying to run 3 services at my container startup (snmpd, sshd and centengine)
As runlevel is unknown in the container, services won't start.
I built an image with this Dockerfile :
FROM centos:6.7
MAINTAINER nael <me#mail>
# Update CentOS
RUN yum -y update
# Install wget
RUN yum install -y wget
# Get Centreon Repo
RUN wget http://yum.centreon.com/standard/3.0/stable/ces-standard.repo -O /etc/yum.repos.d/ces-standard.repo
# Install Packages (SSH, sudo, Centreon Poller & Engine, SNMP)
RUN yum install -y --nogpgcheck openssh-clients openssh-server centreon-poller-centreon-engine sudo net-snmp net-snmp-utils
# Install supervisord
RUN rpm -Uvh http://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/6/x86_64/epel-release-6-8.noarch.rpm
RUN yum --enablerepo=epel install -y supervisor
RUN mv -f /etc/supervisord.conf /etc/supervisord.conf.org
ADD supervisord.conf /etc/
# For sshd & centengine
EXPOSE 22 5669
# Change user password
RUN echo -e "password" | (passwd --stdin user)
# Disable PAM (causing issues while ssh login)
RUN sed -ri 's/UsePAM yes/#UsePAM yes/g' /etc/ssh/sshd_config
RUN sed -ri 's/#UsePAM no/UsePAM no/g' /etc/ssh/sshd_config
# Start supervisord
CMD ["/usr/bin/supervisord"]
Here is the supervisord.conf file
[supervisord]
nodaemon=true
pidfile=/var/run/supervisord.pid
logfile=/var/log/supervisor/supervisord.log
[program:centengine]
command=service centengine start
[program:snmpd]
command=service snmpd start
[program:sshd]
command=service sshd start
But with this Dockerfile and supervisord.conf, when I start my container theses services aren't running.
What could be the problem ?
Not anymore using supervisord.
I just include a script with all the services ... start commands in the Dockerfile. When I create my container with docker run ... I just specify that I want to start it with my script.
& that's working very well.
Thanks #warmoverflow for trying to solve this.
You may find my dockerfy utility useful starting services, pre-running initialization commands before the primary command starts. See https://github.com/markriggins/dockerfy
For example:
RUN wget https://github.com/markriggins/dockerfy/releases/download/0.2.4/dockerfy-linux-amd64-0.2.4.tar.gz; \
tar -C /usr/local/bin -xvzf dockerfy-linux-amd64-*tar.gz; \
rm dockerfy-linux-amd64-*tar.gz;
ENTRYPOINT dockerfy
COMMAND --start bash -c "while false; do echo 'Ima Service'; sleep 1; done" -- \
--reap -- \
nginx
Would run a bash script as a service, echoing "Ima Service" every second, while the primary command nginx runs. If nginx exits, then the "Ima Service" script will automatically be stopped.
As an added benefit, any zombie processes left over by nginx will be automatically cleaned up.
You can also tail log files such as /var/log/nginx/error.log to stderr, edit nginx's configuration prior to startup and much more

How to start railo service in background on the Docker

My name Trang,
I have created Docker image on https://registry.hub.docker.com/u/trangunghoa/railo-mysql/
It is run ok.
Now I created Dockerfile but I can't start automatic Railo service. Please help me.
I have start by some commands at shell script:
exec /opt/railo/railo_ctl start
exec /opt/railo/railo_ctl start -D FOREGROUND
service railo_ctl restart
exec service railo_ctl restart
No command it work.
I looked inside your Dockerfile and identified the problem.
You can only use one CMD inside a Dockerfile. (if you use multiple CMD the old one will override) More info : https://docs.docker.com/reference/builder/#cmd
You need to know that Docker isn't made for running multiple process without a little bit of help. I suggest using supervisord : https://docs.docker.com/articles/using_supervisord/
You can't use RUN service inside a Dockerfile, the reason is simple the command service will be executed and start a daemon, then notify the execution was successful. The temporary container will be killed (and the daemon too) and after that the change will be committed.
What your Dockerfile should look like :
FROM ubuntu:trusty

Docker doesn't start MONGODB, and IPAddress doesn't appear, when started with other services

I have already asked this question on serverfault.com. I am asking it here too as I see different set of questions in these 2 sites (it appears like they have different databases).
I have been trying to build an OS image from Fedora unsuccessfully to start the following:
Systemd
SSHD
RabbitMQ
MongoDB
I can get the first 3 (Systemd, SSHD and RabbitMQ-Server) to work. I can also get MongoDB to work within the container. However, I cannot get MongoDB to work along with other 3 services.
In addition, IP address doesn't show up when I try to "dockerize" MongoDB.
Am I missing something in the Dockerfile?
Here is my dockerfile:
FROM fedora:20
MAINTAINER “Ashfaque” <ashfaque#email.com>
ENV container docker
RUN yum -y update; yum clean all
RUN yum -y install systemd; yum clean all; \

Docker Commands used to build are:
(1) docker build -t rabbitmq_mongo_heisenbug .
(2) docker run --privileged -d -e 'container=docker' -v /sys/fs/cgroup:/sys/fs/cgroup:ro -p 29022:22 -p 29672:15672 -p 29017:27017 rabbitmq_mongo_heisenbug
or.. (3) docker run --privileged -ti -e 'container=docker' -v /sys/fs/cgroup:/sys/fs/cgroup:ro -p 29022:22 -p 29672:15672 -p 29017:27017 rabbitmq_mongo_heisenbug
You are using both ENTRYPOINT and CMD in your Dockerfile. This means, that docker will run /usr/bin/mongod with default parameter /usr/sbin/init. I'm pretty sure this is not what you want.
Docker will run as long as the command you specified is running. I'm not sure about /usr/bin/mongod, but if it runs in daemon mode (that is, spawn a process and return), then the container will stop running right away. The spawned processes will be terminated. The same is true for /usr/sbin/init or for any other command you specify. You can write a small shell script, which spawns the processes and runs one in the foreground, or you can use runit, or some similar tool.
Also, you probably don't need to run sshd in your container. See here why.

mongoDB error: Error: failed to connect to [localhost:27017]

I'm trying to install habitrpg locally but I keep getting a mongoDB error after typing node src/seed.js:
Error: failed to connect to [localhost:27017]
I saw on other questions with the same error people have suggested typing in 'mongod' and that fixes it by creating a local server. I get the error:
-bash: mongod: command not found
Can't figure out what's wrong. Any ideas?
Open CMD (In Windows) or terminal (In Ubuntu).
type command >cd PATH_FOR_MONGODB_BIN_FOLDER
cd C:\Program Files\MongoDB\Server\3.2\bin
for ubuntu command will be same :
cd /home/MongoDB/Server/3.2/bin
then type command >mongod --dbpath PATH_FOR_DATA_FOLDER
mongod --dbpath C:\data\db
For ubuntu command will be :
./mongod --dbpath /home/data/db
you can specify any folder as data folder.
Wait till CMD or Terminal shows "waiting for connections"
2016-09-01T21:38:33.170+0530 I NETWORK [initandlisten] waiting for connections on port 27017
Then open new CMD or terminal window.
type command >cd PATH_FOR_MONGODB_BIN_FOLDER ( same as step 3 )
cd C:\Program Files\MongoDB\Server\3.2\bin
Don't close previous window of cmd or teminal.
then run mongodb by typing "mongo" in windows or "./mongo" in ubuntu
mongo
For ubuntu
./mongo
After mongodb run successfully you can close previous CMD window.
You don't have MongoDB installed. Follow the directions for your system to install it: http://docs.mongodb.org/manual/installation/
From the habitRPG docs:
Before starting make sure to have MongoDB, NodeJS and npm and Git installed and set up.
I think that you don't have an environmental variable declared. Assuming that your MongoDB installation is C:\ProgramFiles\MongoDB\Server\YOUR_VERSION_NUMBER\, you should just add the bin folder path of that version of MongoDB to your PATH system environment variable.
Here's a link where you can find the way to do that without complications :
http://www.computerhope.com/issues/ch000549.htm
After installing MongoDb you have to add the directory "data\db" under the C:\ directory,
then you should start the mongod.exe
on windows open task manager || Ctrl + shift + ESC > select service tab > search for mongo db > right click > start service
I got this issue because I didn't have MongoDB. So I installed MongoDB and tried to run node application and it worked.
If you don't have MongoDB then follow below steps to install and enjoy
Commands :
$ sudo apt-key adv --keyserver hkp://keyserver.ubuntu.com:80 --recv EA312927
$ echo "deb http://repo.mongodb.org/apt/ubuntu xenial/mongodb-org/3.2 multiverse" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/mongodb-org-3.2.list
$ sudo apt-get update
$ sudo apt-get install -y mongodb-org
Then type mongo in terminal and if you will get console for mongo then it's done.
Type sudo pip3 install mongodb, then sudo pip3 install pymongo, then mongod.
I had the same problem on my Mac.
I updated my Homebrew files, after I reinstaled MongoDB in my terminal
brew tap mongodb/brew
and
brew install mongodb-community#5.
and I started mongo server
brew services start mongodb/brew/mongodb-community
After that I coud to commect.
my problem is the connectoon is down, run script:
brew services start mongodb-community
And up mongoDB Compass and works.
I ran mongodb install file and choose repair
