Replica Set Error Code 76

In ref to mongo dba course trying to create replica set as asked shown by instructor in El Capitano (Single machine only), I get following error. I have three members:

(mongodb was installed using homebrew)

Step I: Setting up config cfg ={ _id :"abc", members:[{_id:0, host:"localhost:27001"}, {_id:1, host:"localhost:27002"}, {_id:2, host:"localhost:27003"}] } { "_id" : "abc", "members" : [ { "_id" : 0, "host" : "localhost:27001" }, { "_id" : 1, "host" : "localhost:27002" }, { "_id" : 2, "host" : "localhost:27003" } ] }

STEP II: Initialize the Config.

rs.reconfig(cfg) 2015-10-05T11:34:27.082-0400 E QUERY Error: Could not retrieve replica set config: { "ok" : 0, "errmsg" : "not running with --replSet", "code" : 76 } at Function.rs.conf (src/mongo/shell/utils.js:1017:11) at Function.rs.reconfig (src/mongo/shell/utils.js:969:22) at (shell):1:4 at src/mongo/shell/utils.js:1017

Make sure you have the replSetName name configured in /etc/mongod.conf

replication:
  replSetName: "somename"

Then restart your mongod.

sudo service mongod stop
sudo service mongod start
sudo service mongod restart

You are not running replica set with the repl set name.The solution is to set a replication set name in the mongod config file using the paramater --replSet.

eg) --replSet=test_replica

Once changes are done in config file restart the server.
