[Error]MongoDB not starting

Question

Im trying to start mongodb it returns me this error, i already tried to repair mongo reinstall using brew uninstalling and installing again and nothing happens.

This problem occurred after Mac OS High Sierra Update.

Here's the error:

What i already tried:

mongod --dbpath /data/db --repair

rm -rf /tmp/mongodb-27017.sock

rm -rf /data/db

check the permissions on the /tmp folder, I've seen this before with other programs and that's almost always the cause — Keith M, Sep 28 '17 at 00:41

Try :

1: sudo mongod --dbpath /data/db

Replace /data/db by your mongodb location same as :

sudo mongod --dbpath /var/lib/mongodb

2: Check Port Status

sudo netstat -tlnp | grep 27017

netstat -an |grep 27017

3: Kill ID

sudo killall mongod
sudo killall -15 mongod
sudo kill < Process ID >

Hey, I used this and it works like a charm. Would it be possible for you to give a brief explanation on what these commands do? I am new to the Mac world. Thanks. – mukund Jan 05 '20 at 22:58
