MongoNetworkError: failed to connect to server [localhost:27017] on first connect [MongoNetworkError: connect ECONNREFUSED 127.0.0.1:27017]

Question

I\'m new in nodeJS, started learning by following a trailer on youtube, everything goes well until I added the connect function if mongodb,

mongo.connect(\"m         


        

Answer 1

This had occurred to me and I have found out that it was because of faulty internet connection. If I use the public wifi at my place, which blocks various websites for security reasons, Mongo refuses to connect. But if I were to use my own mobile data, I can connect to the database.
