Description
I am getting errors starting Mongod v3.0.15 in Debian linux. I had changed the /etc/mongod.conf file to use smallFiles by addingmmapv1: smallFiles: true to the storage options.
I now get the following error when I execute $mongod --config /etc/mongod.conf:
ib1:/ 514 $ mongod --config /etc/mongod.conf
2017-10-03T12:14:21.183-0500 F CONTROL Failed global initialization: FileNotOpen Failed to open "/var/log/mongodb/mongod.log"
The mongod.log file exists, and it is also defined in the mongod.conf file as in that directory.
I am able to open the /var/log/mongodb/mongod.log file myself in the shell. It hasn't been written to in a long time (months) curiously.
Thanks very much.
