MongoDb shuts down with Code 100

MongoDb shuts down with Code 100

MongoDB needs a folder to store the database. Create a C:datadb directory:

mkdir C:datadb

and then start MongoDB:

C:Program FilesMongoDBServer3.4binmongod.exe

Sometimes C:datadb folder already exists due to previous installation. So if for this reason mongod.exe does not work, you may delete all the contents from C:datadb folder and execute mongod.exeagain.

For macOS users to fix this issue:

You need to go through the following steps:

Create the “db” directory. This is where the Mongo data files will live. You can create the directory in the default location by running:

sudo mkdir -p /data/db

Make sure that the /data/db directory has the right permissions by running:

sudo chown -R `id -un` /data/db

Youre all set now and you can run sudo mongod to start the Mongo server.

Its not working if you run only mongod
