The MongoDB shell version is 2.4.9. How can i figured out why this is happen ? Is that caused by long running query that run more than 300s ?

Answer 1

I know this is old, but I was running into the issue and stumbled across this question. I managed to solve it.

My issue was on Ubuntu 18.04 and attempting to install and run MongoDB 3.4/3.6.

One issue was a missing /var/run/mongodb directory with the appropriate permissions, the other was this error. I'm still not 100% sure if this error was related to the directory or not, but it definitely had something to do with the configs.

My mongod.conf ended up having processManagement - fork set to true. Changing that to false allowed it to start working.

Answer 2

I solved this problem after including the PID file path in mongod.conf.

It was like this:

processManagement:
   timeZoneInfo: /usr/share/zoneinfo
   fork: true
   pidFilePath: /var/run/mongodb/mongod.pid

In my case, I had put "fork: true", but I hadn't included the PID file path.
