Failed to set up sockets during startup. dbexit: rc: 48 error in mongodb

Question

I updated mongo to version 3.2 now I am getting this error. Earlier I was not getting error. Only after updating mongo I am getting this error. I even tried to stop and star

Answer 1

so the mongod output tells

listen(): bind() failed errno:98 Address already in use for socket: 0.0.0.0:27017"

which means some process is already using the same socet. For instance, if I try to run mongod when its already running, I get exactly this output. Are you sure that this is not your case? I would guess so, as the mongo shell seems to connect successfully...
