MongoDB was running fine, but now it won’t connect. When I run mongo, I get this message:
MongoDB shell version: 3.2.12

I have tried restarting the mongod service, but that doesn’t help. Can you please guide me on how to debug this issue?

Can you delete this file and then launch mongo service: /tmp/mongodb-27017.sock
When you start mongo directly it starts with default options. If you look at your first error logs, you’ll see it’s set to /var/lib/mongodb
I am getting a same error. deleted /tmp/mongodb-27017.sock file. getting following error:
