How can I repair mongodb after changing dbPath?-CodePudding

I have a following problem.

I have changed the path where I want to store my NOSQL db using sudo joe /etc/mongod.conf
mongod.conf is now:

# mongod.conf

# for documentation of all options, see:
#   http://docs.mongodb.org/manual/reference/configuration-options/

# Where and how to store data.
storage:
  dbPath: /home/vojtam/disk/mongodb
  journal:
    enabled: true
#  engine:
#  mmapv1:
#  wiredTiger:

# where to write logging data.
systemLog:
  destination: file
  logAppend: true
  path: /var/log/mongodb/mongod.log

# network interfaces
net:
  port: 27017
  bindIp: 127.0.0.1


# how the process runs
processManagement:
  timeZoneInfo: /usr/share/zoneinfo

#security:

#operationProfiling:

#replication:

#sharding:

I want to run sudo systemctl start mongod.service and sudo systemctl status mongod I got

● mongod.service - MongoDB Database Server
     Loaded: loaded (/lib/systemd/system/mongod.service; enabled; vendor preset: enabled)

bře 07 14:02:23 prace systemd[1]: Started MongoDB Database Server.
bře 07 14:02:23 prace systemd[1]: mongod.service: Main process exited, code=exited, status=100/n/a
bře 07 14:02:23 prace systemd[1]: mongod.service: Failed with result 'exit-code'.

I followed the advice here: Mongod Service start exits with code 100 and I tried: rm /var/lib/mongodb/mongod.lock but there is not such file.

Can you help me please?

EDIT:

Here is my mongod.log:

CodePudding user response：

You must grant write privileges to actual dbPath (in your case /home/vojtam/disk/mongodb) but also to all parent folders.

Home directories like /home/vojtam are usually accessible only for the owner, that's why they are called "home directory". The permissions of any sub-folder does not matter.

By default MongoDB process runs by user mongod, and typically a service is provided to any user of a system. Thus you should prefer a common folder for example /var/lib/mongo as used in defaults.
