mongodb Network is unreachable on mac

Sorry I have ask the same question again from Robo 3T Error : Network is unreachable

Beacause I really can't find out the file /etc/mongod.conf.

My machine is mac and use homebrew install mongodb.

There is no mongod.conf in my path /usr/local/var/mongodb.

Any help would be appreciated.

According suggestion the path /usr/local/opt/mongodb/mongod.conf enter image description here

My /usr/local/opt like this: enter image description here

Try brew uninstall mongo and brew install mongo. Connect it still get the same error.

But find the file mongod.conf in the path /usr/local/etc.

I try to remove the file and restart mongodb server then type command mongo get the error:

MongoDB shell version v4.0.2
connecting to: mongodb://127.0.0.1:27017
2018-09-18T14:38:21.241+0800 E QUERY    [js] Error: couldn't connect to server 127.0.0.1:27017, connection attempt failed: SocketException: Error connecting to 127.0.0.1:27017 :: caused by :: Connection refused :
connect@src/mongo/shell/mongo.js:257:13
@(connect):1:6
exception: connect failed

It is so strange...:(

You can create the mongod.conf at any folder on your Mac you like and pass the path to this file during the start of the Mongo DB server like:

mongod -f /path/to/mongod.conf

You have to create the mongod.conf manually e.g. on the desktop of your Mac. You can do this with the following commands.

Open a terminal

$ cd Desktop
$ touch mongod.conf

Then open the created (currently empty file) with a text editor of your choice and fill in your configurations (Here you can find a manual for the config file: https://docs.mongodb.com/manual/reference/configuration-options/)

Then start your Mongo DB server with

$ mongod -f /Users/YOUR_USERNAME/Desktop/mongod.conf

Please replace YOUR_USERNAME with your MacOs username you are currently working with
