The expectation is that the server should start successfully from any working directory that the OS considers valid. This is especially true when only absolute paths have been specified for dbpath and logpath, and if --fork is used (whereupon the server will chdir to /).

See also ~~SERVER-24916~~.

Success case:

Status setupCwd() {
    // setup cwd
    char buffer[1024];
#ifdef _WIN32
    verify(_getcwd(buffer, 1000));
#else
    verify(getcwd(buffer, 1000));
#endif
    serverGlobalParams.cwd = buffer;
    return Status::OK();
}

A quick and easy (though partial) fix is to just change the hardcoded 1024 and 1000 to PATH_MAX (~~which POSIX defines as >= 4096~~), so as to be better aligned with OS limits (though not definitively so).

It turns out that POSIX requires PATH_MAX >= 256 (or >= 1024 for XSI). Darwin/OSX and Solaris are 1024, but Linux is 10k or more.

A fuller (but more involved) fix would be to dynamically allocate and grow the buffer as necessary.
