How to export/restore in mongodb?
Hello! I have a local mongo db and I want to transfer it into my ubuntu machine.
So far i have exported the local db issuing the command below:
mongoexport --db local_db --collection myCollection --out myCollection.json
and the json file was created. Now i log in into my machine using putty and try
mongoimport --db cloud_db --collection myCloudCollection --file myCollection.json
and i get the following error:
Failed: error connecting to db server: no reachable servers
2015-09-01T13:10:30.080-0400 imported 0 documents
Failed: error connecting to db server: no reachable serversmongoimport
i try to restart mongo service sudo service mongod restart
but i get the same error.
any help? what Am i doing wrong?

Hi,
Can you connect to your Ubuntu Droplet’s MongoDB instance with any other command? Do you see anything in the MongoD logs?
