Hi,

I tried to install mongodb on Win server 2012. At the chapter "Install and Run the MongoDB Service", i have to install mongodb as a windows service. But i have a problem reports like this topic:
https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/mongodb-user/FOn6ObvlkNw

I resolve the problem like this:

• remove "c:\mongodb\mongod.cfg" file
• start windows explorer
• make a text file "c:\mongodb\mongod.cfg.txt"
• append text "logpath=C:\mongodb\log\mongo.log"
• rename file to "c:\mongodb\mongod.cfg"

And so, just re-open PowerShell and run "C:\mongodb\bin\mongod.exe --config C:\mongodb\mongod.cfg --install"
It works!!

I think it's maybe because of encoding file... Can you add this tricks in order to help user?

bye
