Mongodb: Failed to connect to 127.0.0.1:27017, reason: errno:10061

Question

Here is my mongod.cfg file:

bind_ip = 127.0.0.1
dbpath = C:\\mongodb\\data\\db
logpath = C:\\mongodb\\log\\mongo-server.log
verbose=v


        

Answer 1

If it writes that you had not properly shut down or that mongod.lock is not empty , only delete mongod.lock from C:\data\db\ and it will start.

Answer 2

first you run the command mongod and check weather the port 27017 has started or not if yes then hit the command mongo....and database will start.

Answer 3

When This Error is Coming it is lack of the following

1)Setting the path to mongo db go to "C" Drive and the installation of Mongo db directory and then go to bin folder in the mongo and copy the path of it

c:/mongodb/server/3.2/bin/ and create a new environmental variable in system properties then name is path and value="c:/mongodb/server/3.2/bin/" here my version is 3.2

2)create a data directory for the data in C Drive c:/Data/twitter

3)start the server with **

c:/> mongod

check your port config if there is any error as the local port may be assigned to any other 4)start your Mongo database with

Mongo then your mongo db will start

then in your mongo database create a database

use DATABASE_NAME

for example:

use twitterdata

switched to db twitterdata

to check your current database

db

twitterdata

to get total databases

show dbs
