Can't connect to MongoDB

[Michaelwu]

The problem happened after I reboot my server by using:

sudo reboot

After I reconnect, I <cd> to the NodeBB dictionary:

cd /home/NodeBB

And then I input:

./nodebb start

And I see the log by typing

./nodebb log

I saw this:

I type

mongo

and I met this

I cannot start my server now ,it is 502

Who can help me solve it?
Thanks!

It sounds like MongoDB was installed but not enabled, so it is not turned on when the server is started.

Can you try running systemctl start mongod, and then type mongo again to verify that it is working?

If all's well, then systemctl enable mongod to have it set up to turn on automatically.

I have just searched the stackoverflow and tried all the ways.But it still doesnt work...

I am waiting for the cooldown...

How did you install MongoDB?

What is the output of ls /etc/systemd/system/mon*? Perhaps there's a different way to administer MongoDB.

Then you need to figure out how you installed MongoDB, and turn it on. That's all.

I can't help you any further because this is a configuration issue, and not with NodeBB itself. Not trying to be mean, I literally just can't help you because I don't know how you set up your server.
