How to resolve error :dbpath (/data/db/) does not exist permanently in MongoDB

Question

I have installed mongodb in my Ubuntu 10.04.

I know that when it comes to start the mongodb server with the command \"mongod\",then it expects /data/db

Answer 1

If you are using mac catalina:

mongod --dbpath=/Users/user/data/db leave this window

then you can type in another window.

mongo

show dbs
