MongoDBが急に起動できなくなった時の対処法

なぜだか分からないけど急にmongoシェルが起動できなくなっていた。
OSはCentOS 6.7

$ mongo
MongoDB shell version: 2.6.11
connecting to: test
2015-12-17T22:20:51.737+0900 warning: Failed to connect to 127.0.0.1:27017, reason: errno:111 Connection refused
2015-12-17T22:20:51.738+0900 Error: couldn't connect to server 127.0.0.1:27017 (127.0.0.1), connection attempt failed at src/mongo/shell/

mongodが落ちたらしい。
起動しようとすると失敗するのでログを探ってみると。

$ sudo service mongod start
Starting mongod:                                           [FAILED]

どうやらパーミッションの問題らしいことが分かった。
参考URLによると、mongodbのディレクトリの中身のはmongodユーザでアクセスするらしいので、オーナーを全部mongodにした。

$ sudo chown -R mongod:mongod /var/lib/mongo

とりあえずこれで直った。

$ sudo service mongod start
Starting mongod:                                           [  OK  ]

なぜこんなことが起こってしまったのか原因は不明(´・ω・｀)
