If that's the case, removing and then re-adding the service for the appropriate mongod should fix your issue. -Nick jetcrazy commented on Tue, 25 Sep 2018 00:50:45 +0000: Would MongoDB being installed on nodeJS be the reason? nick.brewer commented on Tue, 25 Sep 2018 00:48:02 +0000: JetCrazy The error indicates that there's already another MongoDB service configured - this issue has showed up before on the mongodb-user Google group. Per that post, I suggest removing and then recreating the service. Please note that SERVER project is for reporting bugs or feature suggestions for the MongoDB server. As this appears to be an environmental issue rather than an underlying bug in MongoDB, I'll close this ticket. For MongoDB-related support discussion please post on the mongodb-user group or Stack Overflow with the mongodb tag. A question like this involving more discussion would be best posted on the mongodb-user group. -Nick jetcrazy commented on Tue, 25 Sep 2018 00:27:14 +0000: Uploaded nick.brewer commented on Mon, 24 Sep 2018 23:20:37 +0000: JetCrazy Can you upload the contents of the mongod.log file during the time that it fails to start? Thanks, -Nick
