Every time i have to start mongoDB service manually.

I have looked into how to add application on startup in windows but it only starts application not service like this

So can you help me to find solution to add mongoDB service to startup in windows so it can automatically starts? Thanks in advance.

Answer 1

In windows Control Panel\All Control Panel Items\Administrative Tools\Services you can find the MongoDB Database Server service and change it's Startup Type to Automatic.

If no MongoDB Database Server service is listed in the services, you need to install it as MongoDB as a Windows service as described here.

Answer 2

You can check if the MongoDB Server is enabled on the windows services list. You can verify by opening the Run application Windows Key + R and execute the command msconfig. This will open a window, where you can navigate to services and verify if the MongoDB Server box is enabled.
