MongoDB is a database used to manage and create databases.
Issues
MongoDB fails to start
When running the command sudo systemctl status mongod the MongoDB server will fail to start with the message (code=exited, status=62)
Solution
Attempt to repair the MongoDB installation by running the command:
sudo mongod --repair
If this command fails and it shows the error Data directory /data/db not found create the directory using this command:
sudo mkdir -p /data/db
Then restart mongodb:
- sudo systemctl stop mongod
- sudo systemctl start mongod
- sudo systemctl status mongod
MongoDB fails to start immediately after installation
When running the command sudo systemctl start mongod an error will appear saying:
Failed to start mongod.service: Unit mongod.service not found.
Solution
Enter the command:
sudo systemctl enable mongod
This will link the service and allow it to start.
