Django+MongoDb connection error

I am currently developing an application in Django+MongoDb. The application has to just push the data into the database once the url of the application is accessed.

But how ever I am encountering this error mongoengine.connection.ConnectionError: Cannot connect to database default : port must be an instance of int

As the error states port should be an 'int', I changed the port details from mongoengine.connect('employeedb', host='127.0.0.1', port='8000') to mongoengine.connect('employeedb', host='127.0.0.1', port=8000) in my settings.py file but then I get an error stating mongoengine.connection.ConnectionError: Cannot connect to database default : [Errno 111] Connection refused

Can anyone find out what is going wrong here?

I am using: django==1.7, mongoengine, django-toolbox & pymongo==2.8

My settings.py file is here

EDIT: My OS= Ubuntu 14.04 & I have not installed django-nonrel

Install mongodb in local pc and set dbpath,

Then open cmd and open connection using this command:

c:/mongodb/bin>mongod --dbpath (path of db)

and then replace you connection line in settings.py like this and run your project.

mongoengine.connect('employeedb', username='', password='')

Let me know.

Try replacing dummy database from DATABASES dict with the following, should work for you.

DATABASES = {
    'default' : {
      'ENGINE' : 'django_mongodb_engine',
      'NAME' : 'employeedb'    
    } 
}

Django MongoDB Engine also takes into account the HOST, PORT, USER, PASSWORD and OPTIONS settings.
