MongoDB cannot start server: The default storage engine 'wiredTiger' is not available with this build of mongod
Well... There appears to be a version conflict: you are probably running a 32bit version of Mongo. Just do as they say and actually use the other default storage engine:
Write the command as follows in your Mongo/bin directory:
mongod --storageEngine=mmapv1 --dbpath [your-path]
Should solve the problem. I guess you don't quite mind about using the good old mmapv1 instead of wiredTiger do you?
Look carefully error, an error message is very clear that the causes and solutions for the problems, as long as we later in the installation MonogoDB command to add a parameter --storageEngine = mmapv1, will wiredTiger engine switched mmapv1 engine, you can successfully install.
So your complete command will be as follows:
mongod --dbpath MongoDb_Location_In_Your_HDD\data --storageEngine=mmapv1
Note: MongoDb_Location_In_Your_HDD means the location where you put your MongoDb e.g.- D:\mongodb
I also come across this issues when i installed mongodb 32 bit msi for windows server.
Reason could be:
I think for mongodb 32 bit the database engine wont take automatically we need to explicitly give them while configuring the db path
The fix is below:
Run command prompt as administrator
d:\mongodb>mongod --dbpath "data" --storageEngine "mmapv1"
After adding the above bold code the issue resolved.
Thanks Dev
You can use mongod --storageEngine=mmapv1 --dbpath "Your Path"
For me :
"C:\Program Files\MongoDB\Server\3.2\bin\mongod.exe" --storageEngine=mmapv1 --dbpath="C:\data\db"
Hope it works fine for you too.
Because you are using the MongoDB on a 32bit machine, the storage engine wiredTiger is not supported on 32bit machine. There are two solutions of this problem:
- upgrade your system to 64bit
- change your storage engine to the engines that are suitable for 32bit system,like mmapv1, and run mongod again.
The result is like this:
