HTTP Status Interface

Deprecated since version 3.2: Starting in 3.2, MongoDB deprecates the HTTP interface.

Answer 3

For mongodb v3.0.2 the mongod.conf is a yaml file, you should add these two lines after net:

http.enabled: true
http.RESTInterfaceEnabled: true

my mongod.conf is

  bindIp: 127.0.0.1

  http.enabled: true
  http.RESTInterfaceEnabled: true
