Unexpected mongo exit code 48 - restarting in Meteor

I cannot start my Meteor app using the meteor command. I have tried almost all Meteor reset but all in vain, but I have manged to run the Meteor project on different ports, but my mongodb instance must be working.

I have tried running Meteor:

Unexpected mongo exit code 48. Restarting.    
Unexpected mongo exit code 48. Restarting.    
Unexpected mongo exit code 48. Restarting.    
Can't start Mongo server.                     
MongoDB exited because its port was closed, or was already
taken by a previous instance of MongoDB

Check for other processes listening on port 3001
or other Meteor instances running in the same project.

In my case, I was trying to run 2 Meteor apps on the one computer. One on port 3000, the other on port 3001.

Meteor reserves port (3000 in this case) and port + 1 (so, port 3001 too) as stated here.

So, I changed to port 3010 (meteor --port 3010) and that fixed my issue.

Starting meteor on a different port is a quick and easy workaround. In my case, I had not instructed any app to run on port 3001, thus via this command, I learned what the culprit was:

sudo lsof -i :3001
COMMAND    PID   USER   FD   TYPE DEVICE SIZE/OFF NODE NAME
.ruby.bin 2529 daemon   12u  IPv4  22408      0t0  TCP localhost:3001 (LISTEN)

Simply kill the ruby server if you want, or simply run your meteor app on a new port.

You just need to reset your database

meteor reset

or 

 meteor -p 3006

Hope this works for you,

Cheers
