Unable to connect MongoDB, Connection refused

Suddenly my mongodb stopped working after a forced system restart.

i'm getting message

Unable to connect MongoDB, please check your configurations. MongoDB said:Failed to connect to: 127.0.0.1:27017: Connection refused.

i tried following this solution available on stackoverflow:

Step 1: Remove lock file.
sudo rm /var/lib/mongodb/mongod.lock

Step 2: Repair mongodb.
mongod --repair 

Step 3: start mongodb.
sudo start mongodb 
or
sudo service mongodb start

Step 4: Check status of mongodb.
sudo status mongodb 
or   
sudo service mongodb status

Step 5: Start mongo console.
mongo

I'm getting an error in Step 3:

start: Unknown job: mongodb

Here's the log file:
