Hi everyone,

I’ve installed the MongoDB Community Edition on my local PC following the official guide. However, I’m encountering an issue when trying to start MongoDB.

To start MongoDB, I ran:

sh

Copy code

sudo service mongod start

When I checked the status with:

sh

Copy code

sudo service mongod status

I got the following output:

yaml

Copy code

× mongod.service - MongoDB Database Server
     Loaded: loaded (/lib/systemd/system/mongod.service; disabled; vendor preset: enabled)

Additionally, when I tried to access the log files, I found that there is no log file at the expected location:

c

Copy code

/var/log/mongodb/mongod.log

Has anyone encountered this issue before or have any suggestions on how to resolve it? Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks!
