当我在终端中键入 mongodb 命令时，终端正在退出

Question

I am trying to install MongoDB in my Linux mint computer and when I type mongod I get the following error,

2020-07-14T13:10:15.299+0530 I CONTROL  [initandlisten] MongoDB starting : pid=13188 port=27017 dbpath=/data/db 64-bit host=umakanth-G3-3579

Can anyone please help me solve this issue

Failed to set up listener: SocketException: Address already in use

Seems that you already have a MongoDB server running on your machine, considering that you are using the default port (27017).

You can, for example, provide another port, then you will probably have 2 mongod instances running on your machine, or just see if the running daemon is useful to you.

Edit : It is possible that one instance of mongod already runs in your system. If this is just the native service in your local machine, you can find out by typing: service mongodb status . Then, in case the service is started, you can try to use it, for example by using the mongo shell. Simply type mongo (but note that it will use default username and password).
