I installed mongodb with homebrew and i use Mac OS Big Sur when I start mongo db with
$ brew services start mongodb-community
It says that mongodb it successfully started but when i run
$ brew services list
The status of mongodb-community is "error" and if I try to type the command "mongo" in the cmd it gave me the problem explained in the title of this question:
MongoDB shell version v4.4.3
connecting to: mongodb://127.0.0.1:27017/?compressors=disabled&gssapiServiceName=mongodb
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 :

if you want to run mongodb type on terminal:
mongod --dbpath /usr/local/var/mongodb
If it not works use only:
mongod
And if you want to make CRUD in your db via SHELL or TERMINAL, run this :
mongo

I ran the following in command line to fix the problem.
mongod --dbpath /usr/local/var/mongodb
this was directly after a re-install.
The error message that clued me in was:
{"t":{"$date":"2021-04-22T11:33:48.608-04:00"},"s":"E", "c":"STORAGE", "id":20557, "ctx":"initandlisten","msg":"DBException in initAndListen, terminating","attr":{"error":"NonExistentPath: Data directory /data/db not found. Create the missing directory or specify another path using (1) the --dbpath command line option, or (2) by adding the 'storage.dbPath' option in the configuration file."}}
more specifically
"error":"NonExistentPath: Data directory /data/db not found. Create the missing directory or specify another path using (1) the --dbpath command line option, or (2) by adding the 'storage.dbPath' option in the configuration file."
