I have uninstalled and reinstalled mongo (3.0.1), being sure I accepted the network access on windows 8, and yet I still have the same issue of "waiting on 27017".
The commands i sent are the following:
PS C:\Program Files\MongoDB\Server\3.0\bin> .\mongod.exe --dbpath C:\mongodb\data 2015-04-01T21:33:46.787-0400 I JOURNAL [initandlisten] journal dir=C:\mongodb\data\journal 2015-04-01T21:33:46.790-0400 I JOURNAL [initandlisten] recover : no journal files present, no recovery needed 2015-04-01T21:33:46.972-0400 I JOURNAL [durability] Durability thread started 2015-04-01T21:33:46.973-0400 I JOURNAL [journal writer] Journal writer thread started 2015-04-01T21:33:47.134-0400 I CONTROL [initandlisten] MongoDB starting : pid=7436 port=27017 dbpath=C:\mongodb\data 64 -bit host=CookieMunster 2015-04-01T21:33:47.135-0400 I CONTROL [initandlisten] targetMinOS: Windows 7/Windows Server 2008 R2 2015-04-01T21:33:47.135-0400 I CONTROL [initandlisten] db version v3.0.1 2015-04-01T21:33:47.136-0400 I CONTROL [initandlisten] git version: 534b5a3f9d10f00cd27737fbcd951032248b5952 2015-04-01T21:33:47.137-0400 I CONTROL [initandlisten] OpenSSL version: OpenSSL 1.0.1j-fips 15 Oct 2014 2015-04-01T21:33:47.137-0400 I CONTROL [initandlisten] build info: windows sys.getwindowsversion(major=6, minor=1, buil d=7601, platform=2, service_pack='Service Pack 1') BOOST_LIB_VERSION=1_49 2015-04-01T21:33:47.139-0400 I CONTROL [initandlisten] allocator: system 2015-04-01T21:33:47.141-0400 I CONTROL [initandlisten] options: { storage: { dbPath: "C:\mongodb\data" } } 2015-04-01T21:33:47.148-0400 I INDEX [initandlisten] allocating new ns file C:\mongodb\data\local.ns, filling with ze roes... 2015-04-01T21:33:47.587-0400 I STORAGE [FileAllocator] allocating new datafile C:\mongodb\data\local.0, filling with ze roes... 2015-04-01T21:33:47.589-0400 I STORAGE [FileAllocator] creating directory C:\mongodb\data\_tmp 2015-04-01T21:33:47.721-0400 I STORAGE [FileAllocator] done allocating datafile C:\mongodb\data\local.0, size: 64MB, t ook 0.007 secs 2015-04-01T21:33:47.747-0400 I NETWORK [initandlisten] waiting for connections on port 27017
This is pending and will continue to do see endlessly.
Hitting my head against a wall and any help is wonderful.
Thanks
