Hello,

I’m using Ubuntu 24.04 and have this error when trying to connect on my mongodb :

Current Mongosh Log ID: 67b5ee0c218ceaf5f3e43268
Connecting to:          mongodb://127.0.0.1:27017/?directConnection=true&serverSelectionTimeoutMS=2000&appName=mongosh+2.3.9
MongoNetworkError: connect ECONNREFUSED 127.0.0.1:27017

I already started my db using :

sudo systemctl restart mongod
sudo systemctl status mongod
● mongod.service - MongoDB Database Server
     Loaded: loaded (/usr/lib/systemd/system/mongod.service; enabled; preset: enabled)

             └─910431 /usr/bin/mongod --config /etc/mongod.conf

and my config seems to be correct :

my service as well seems to be ok :

I’m out of solution and i dont know how to fix that, any clues ?

Thanks in advance !

Thx for you quick reply, well the only log i found was using

 sudo journalctl -xeu mongod --no-pager | tail -n 50

with multiple restart during my test

And my /var/log/mongodb/mongod.log dont seems to be created, so i created it manually with the propery access for mongodb but i get nothing from it.

I’m really out of ideas…
