Mac側のmongoが起動しなくなったらdbpathを疑う

ある日突然mongoが繋がらなくなりました。

$ mongo
MongoDB shell version v3.6.4
connecting to: mongodb://127.0.0.1:27017
2018-08-03T23:11:23.982+0900 W NETWORK  [thread1] Failed to connect to 127.0.0.1:27017, in(checking socket for error after poll), reason: Connection refused
2018-08-03T23:11:23.987+0900 E QUERY    [thread1] Error: couldn't connect to server 127.0.0.1:27017, connection attempt failed :
connect@src/mongo/shell/mongo.js:251:13
@(connect):1:6
exception: connect failed

…もう…MySQLといい…Mac側にデータベース持つとこういう不具合多くないですか…。

（結論）mongod.confで指定してるdbpathが/data/db以外になってないかを確認する

あくまで可能性の一つですが、自分の場合はmongodを起動するときに読みに行くdbpathが合っていないことが原因でした。

1. ひとまずmongodを実行してみる。

2018-08-03T23:13:20.920+0900 I CONTROL  [initandlisten] build environment:
2018-08-03T23:13:20.920+0900 I CONTROL  [initandlisten]     distarch: x86_64
2018-08-03T23:13:20.920+0900 I CONTROL  [initandlisten]     target_arch: x86_64
2018-08-03T23:13:20.920+0900 I CONTROL  [initandlisten] options: {}
2018-08-03T23:13:20.923+0900 I STORAGE  [initandlisten] exception in initAndListen: NonExistentPath: Data directory /data/db not found., terminating
2018-08-03T23:13:20.923+0900 I CONTROL  [initandlisten] now exiting
2018-08-03T23:13:20.923+0900 I CONTROL  [initandlisten] shutting down with code:100

NonExistentPath: Data directory /data/db not found と言われてシャットダウンしてしまっています。/data/dbなんてパスはありませんでした。ので、一体どこにデータなんてあるんだい！と思っていろいろ探していたら、/usr/local/etc/mongod.confを見つけました。

2. vim /usr/local/etc/mongod.confを実行してみる

$ vim /usr/local/etc/mongod.conf
  1 systemLog:
  2   destination: file
  3   path: /usr/local/var/log/mongodb/mongo.log
  4   logAppend: true
  5 storage:
  6   dbPath: /usr/local/var/mongodb
  7 net:
  8   bindIp: 127.0.0.1

storage:にデータの保存先が書かれています。なので、mongodを起動する時にこのパスを明示的に指定してあげればOKです。

3. mongod --dbpath /usr/local/var/mongodb/ を実行してみる

$ mongod --dbpath /usr/local/var/mongodb/

4. mongo をぶっ叩く

$ mongo
