Where is log file of mongodb in mac

Question

I installed mongodb in my mac and following is the way I installed. Where is my mongodb log file located?

$ tar xzf mongodb-osx-x86_64-2.2.3.tgz $ sudo mv mongodb-osx-x86_64-2.2.3 /usr/local/mongodb  $ sudo mkdir -p /data/db $ sudo chown 'whoami' /data/db  $ vim .bash_profile    export MONGO_PATH=/usr/local/mongodb   export PATH=$PATH:$MONGO_PATH/bin 

Where is the settings file of mongodb located which stores all this information.

Answer 1

I installed mongo with brew, and it was located at /usr/local/var/log/mongodb/mongo.log

I found it by running

find / -name mongo.log 

Answer 2

From the mongo shell you can find the path for data, log and config using:

   db.serverCmdLineOpts()
