It’s generated with the incorrect permissions.
I’m not too sure how systemctl works but the sock file is only created when utilizing systemctl, so I’m not sure if mongodb is supposed to generate it or if it’s only there because it’s a requirement of systemctl kind of thing.
I did try the following to see if it made a difference since it seems to have made a difference for others but that didn’t work.
sudo chown `whoami` /tmp/mongodb-27017.sock
I even tried adding sudo in the service file but didn’t work too well as it’d require a password to function and even if I fed it the password within the file it didn’t recognize it.
Here’s the last bit of commands that I’ve trie
56 sudo systemctl daemon-reload
57 sudo systemctl restart mongod
58 sudo systemctl status mongod
59 sudo rm -rf /tmp/mongodb-27017.sock
60 sudo systemctl daemon-reload
61 sudo systemctl restart mongod
62 sudo systemctl status mongod
63 sudo rm -rf /tmp/mongodb-27017.sock
64 sudo systemctl daemon-reload
65 sudo systemctl start mongod
66 sudo systemctl status mongod
67 sudo rm -rf /tmp/mongodb-27017.sock
68 sudo systemctl daemon-reload
69 sudo service mongod start && mongod
70 sudo systemctl status mongod
71 sudo systemctl restart mongod
72 sudo systemctl status mongod
