Unable to connect to MongoDB

Question

I\'ve just installed MongoDB (standard Ubuntu build, not the latest stable) and for some reason I can\'t connect:

Mon Feb  6 03:11:22 Error: couldn\'t connect to         


        

Answer 1

I solved this problem by commenting out the following line in my /etc/mongod.conf file.

# Listen to local interface only. Comment out to listen on all interfaces. 
#bind_ip = 127.0.0.1

You will need to follow this config change with restarting the mongod process.

sudo service mongod restart
