storageEngine=mmapv1 is for older version, as you are installed latest version 3.2. So by defaultly if you start your mongod wiredTiger files will same inside data/db. So Delete everything from db directory and start freshly with

mongod --storageEngine=mmapv1

Whenever you want to switch from one storage engine to another you need to clean your db directory, then only you can swich

For wiredTiger

mongod --storageEngine=wiredTiger or mongod
