Answer 1

there can't be quotation marks in your configure file . way like this is wrong:

dbpath="D:/Program Files/MongoDB/Data/DB"
logpath="D:/Program Files/MongoDB/Data/Log/mongo.log"

downside is right:

dbpath=D:/Program Files/MongoDB/Data/DB
logpath=D:/Program Files/MongoDB/Data/Log/mongo.log
