Hi, I've setup a droplet with Shared Private Networking enabled. I've provisioned it with Ubuntu 12.10 x64. Also, I've installed mongodb using 'sudo apt-get install mongodb' command. I tried using mongoose to connect to the mongodb droplet using the default port. It said failed to connect. I used the command below: > var mongoose = require('mongoose'); > mongoose.connect('mongodb://XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX:27017/database'); Things I've tried... 1. Ping the MongoDB droplet from the app droplet. It works. 2. Ran 'mongo' command on the MongoDB droplet. It works. 3. Ran 'sudo netstat -plunt' and saw the mongod process listening on the 27017 port. Any idea what I could try to verify it or what I can do to resolve this? Cheers, Mickey
