      Hi All,

      On the Community version of MongoDB version 2.6 when installed on Ubuntu the service command status returns stop/waiting even when the daemon is running correctly. The Enterprise 2.6 version correctly returns that the daemon is running.

      Issuing the command:

      $ sudo service mongod start
      

      followed by:

      $ sudo service mongod status
      mongod stop/waiting
      

      /etc/init/mongod.conf

      # Ubuntu upstart file at /etc/init/mongod.conf
