Currently when trying to use the mongodb plugin, I get this error

2018-10-11T15:47:15.635 thread-0   mongo_db_plugin.cpp:513       handle_mongo_excepti ] mongo exception, mongo init, line 1391, code 15, generic server error

It did work before, but then I did a few tweaks here and there to change the dbpath to save the db on the other HDD.

I figured out, when I run solely mongo in the terminal, I get the a related error --> Failed to connect to 127.0.0.1:27017, reason: errno:111 Connection refused

When I run mongod (daemon) --> ERROR: dbpath (/data/db) does not exist. Create this directory or give existing directory in --dbpath.

In case I run mongod --config /etc/mongod.conf, to use the adjusted config file with specific dbpath, everything works as expected. mongo afterwards as well

When starting nodeos it seems to use the old dbpath and NOT dbpath from /etc/mongod.conf and /etc/mongo.conf, although I ran mongod before with the right path.

The question is how can I make nodeos use mongod --config /etc/mongod.conf? Or how can I change this globally ?

Perhaps, with the help of a marameter, you performed file system manipulations, in particular with a block base, what exactly did you do?

check config.ini

datadir= blocks-dir = "/mnt/volume_lon1_01/blocks"

Maybe your base has a different name already, for example

blocks-dir = "/mnt/volume_lon1_01/blocks_april12-10-2018"

  • the config.ini points always to the same path I think that's not the problem. It's probably EOS not calling mongo with the right & updated dbpath
