Why is my MongoDB server not starting up?

I am not sure why, and the service was working fine just yesterday, all of a sudden I can not get MongoDB to start up. [root@purr ~]# service mongod start Starting mongod: Thu Aug 29 23:26:07.550 Thu Aug 29 23:26:07.550 warning: 32-bit servers don’t have journaling enabled by default.

Is it possible to start mongod as root?

Problems here was that you gave command sudo mongod –dbpath /home/user/mongodb/data/ what created ROOT ownded files to that /home/user/mongodb/data/ directory and your “normal” mongodb user don’t have right to overwrite those. So, NEVER start your mongod as root OR if you do so, remember reset ownership of those data files back to mongodb.
