回答1:

The MongoDB packages contain a "bug" which prevents them from starting properly on the newer RedHat based systems. Please see SERVER-14679 for details.

As a workaround until 2.6.5 is released, please edit the init script according to https://github.com/mongodb/mongo/commit/50ca596ace0b1390482408f1b19ffb1f9170cab6

What worked for me in Ubuntu is a combination of the answers from @Tuan Nguyen and @Tom Carchrae

sudo kill $(sudo lsof -t -i:27017) 
sudo rm -rf /tmp/mongodb-27017.sock
sudo rm -f /var/lib/mongo/mongod.lock
sudo rm -f /var/run/mongodb/mongod.pid
sudo mkdir -p  /var/run/mongodb/
touch /var/run/mongodb/mongod.pid
sudo chown -R  mongodb:mongodb /var/run/mongodb/
sudo chown mongodb:mongodb /var/run/mongodb/mongod.pid

You can then run

sudo service mongod start

i finally found a solution that worked for me (I'm using Ubuntu on my Vagrant VM), i started with this :

sudo mkdir -p /var/run/mongodb/
sudo chown -R mongodb:mongodb /var/run/mongodb

But when i checked my logs with :

tail -f /var/log/mongodb/mongodb.log

I still had this :

[HOUR] I CONTROL [main] ***** SERVER RESTARTED *****

[HOUR] I CONTROL [main] ERROR: Cannot write pid file to /var/run/mongod.pid: Permission denied

So i've edited a file named mongod.pid with nothing in it :

sudo vim /var/run/mongod.pid

And i've changed the rights :

sudo chown mongodb:mongodb mongod.pid

Final folders, users & rights :

drwxr-xr-x 2 mongodb mongodb 40 Jul 27 09:28 mongodb/

-rw-r--r-- 1 mongodb mongodb 1 Jul 27 09:35 mongod.pid

Then :

sudo systemctl restart mongod

And that finally worked :)

step by step, centos 6.8

sudo kill $(sudo lsof -t -i:27017) 
rm -rf /tmp/mongodb-27017.sock
rm -f /var/lib/mongo/mongod.lock 
rm -f /var/run/mongodb/mongod.pid 
sudo service mongod start

open port 27017 and save changes

iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --dport 27017 -j ACCEPT
sudo service iptables sav

This helped me to go ahead

mkdir -p  /var/run/mongodb/ ;chown -R  mongod:mongod /var/run/mongodb/
