Configuring MongoDB on Windows

Question

I am trying to set up MongoDB on Windows, and the online docs seem far from accurate.

Under \"Configure a Windows Service\" part, step 1 mentions to create a config file

Answer 1

Here's an example of a mongodb.config file for Windows.

##store data here
dbpath=C:\mongodb\data\db

##all output go here
logpath=C:\mongodb\data\log\mongo.log

##log read and write operations
diaglog=3
