I have been uninstalling and reinstalling Mongodb on Ubuntu 14.04 following the official documentation for few times now. However, I keep getting this:

2015-12-22T12:46:32.091+0000 I CONTROL  ***** SERVER RESTARTED *****

***aborting after fassert() failure

I am expecting to see: [initandlisten] waiting for connections on port <port> but can't see it. What can cause it?

remove everything from /tmp directory

sudo rm -rf /tmp/mongod*.sock

change the ownership of the db path and log path

chown -R mongodb:mongodb /var/lib/mongodb/
chown -R mongodb:mongodb /var/log/monogdb/

restart your mongo

sudo service mongod start
