PG 56 - Mongo Connection Issues #48
Description
Hi,
been following along and like the book, though finding some things in final code of chapter that weren't discussed in the section on it, but my issue here is with mongo
I'm installed mongo via npm and mongoose and created the db.js file.
when i try and connect to mongo (using terminal) i get
$ mongo MongoDB shell version: 3.0.5 connecting to: test 2016-04-12T09:19:12.414-0700 W NETWORK Failed to connect to 127.0.0.1:27017, reason: errno:61 Connection refused 2016-04-12T09:19:12.415-0700 E QUERY Error: couldn't connect to server 127.0.0.1:27017 (127.0.0.1), connection attempt failed at connect (src/mongo/shell/mongo.js:179:14) at (connect):1:6 at src/mongo/shell/mongo.js:179 exception: connect failed
Same comes back from using Postman. I've also changed my mongoose.connect from
mongo://localohost
to
mongo://127.0.0.1
just in case - with no help
