Cannot start MongoDB as a service

Question

I have been developing for MongoDB for some months now and would like to install it as a service on my Windows 7 Enterprise machine. The following is the command that I hav

Answer 1

My mongod.cfg file had the following last two lines:

#snmp:
mp:

I have no idea why there's an mp: in there. But when I manually executed the image path

C:\mongodb\bin\mongod.exe --config "C:\mongodb\bin\mongod.cfg" --service

at

Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\MongoDB

I got

c:\mongodb\bin>mongod /?C:\mongodb\bin\mongod.exe --config "C:\mongodb\bin\mongod.cfg" --service
Unrecognized option: mp
try 'mongod --help' for more information

So I commented it out and then the service started without any problem.
