I get the following error:
Warning { MongoError: failed to connect to server [mongodb:27017] on first connect at Pool.<anonymous> (/Users/michaelks/Desktop/users/node_modules/mongodb-core/lib/topologies/server.js:325:35) at emitOne (events.js:96:13) at Pool.emit (events.js:188:7) at Connection.<anonymous> (/Users/michaelks/Desktop/users/node_modules/mongodb-core/lib/connection/pool.js:270:12) at Connection.g (events.js:292:16) at emitTwo (events.js:106:13) at Connection.emit (events.js:191:7) at Socket.<anonymous> (/Users/michaelks/Desktop/users/node_modules/mongodb-core/lib/connection/connection.js:173:49) at Socket.g (events.js:292:16) at emitOne (events.js:96:13) at Socket.emit (events.js:188:7) at connectErrorNT (net.js:1025:8) at _combinedTickCallback (internal/process/next_tick.js:74:11) at process._tickCallback (internal/process/next_tick.js:98:9) name: 'MongoError', message: 'failed to connect to server [mongodb:27017] on first connect' }
Even though I get this in the terminal window where I run Mongo:
2016-12-25T03:45:23.715+0100 I NETWORK [initandlisten] connection accepted from 127.0.0.1:58868 #8 (8 connections now open)
It kinda looks like there is a connection.
I've tried both
$ mongod
and
$ brew services start mongo
This is my test_helper.js
const mongoose = require('mongoose'); mongoose.connect('mongodb:localhost/users_test'); mongoose.connection .once('open', () => console.log('Good to go!')) .on('error', (error) => {
console.warn('Warning', error);
});
I have not specifically made the db "users_test" as I am under the impression that mongoose or mongo or both will do this on the fly.
I've tried both "localhost" and "127.0.0.1". I'm on OSX 10.11.5 I'm running Node 7.3.0 and Mongo 3.2.9
What am I doing wrong? How do I figure out what's wrong?
