[Resolved] exception in initandlisten mongodb

[Resolved] exception in initandlisten mongodb:

 

Ensure you have done all the below steps,

1. Extracted and kept the files something like mongodb (I consider that you kept in c drive)
2. You may be created the folder for data/db as well in the mongodb (thay looks like this, c:\mongodb\data\db)
3. After the above things you would have opened the terminal and tried running the below command,

mongod –dbpath c:\mongodb\data\db

4. You would have got the error something like this,

C:\mongodb\bin>mongod –dbpath c:\mongodb\data\db
