Minor - P4 Description
The following command:
c:\SitesData\survey.unifocus.com\mongo\mongod.exe --rest --replSet rsUfSurvey --dbpath C:\SitesData\survey.unifocus.com\mongodata_test27022\ --serviceName Mongo27022 --serviceDisplayName "MongoDB 27022" --serviceDescription "Instance of mongod.exe listening on TCP port 27022" --logpath C:\SitesData\survey.unifocus.com\mongo_27022.log --logappend --port 27022 --install
|
creates a service with a HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\services\MongoDB\ImagePath value of:
"c:\SitesData\survey.unifocus.com\mongo\mongod.exe" --rest --replSet rsUfSurvey --dbpath "C:\SitesData\survey.unifocus.com\mongodata_test27022\" --logpath "C:\SitesData\survey.unifocus.com\mongo_27022.log" --logappend --port 27022 --service
|
When atetmpting to start the service using NET START Mongo27022, the following error message is given:
The service is not responding to the control function.
|
If I try to manually run the ImagePath value without "--service" on the end, I get the following error:
Fri Mar 30 08:57:05 [initandlisten] exception in initAndListen: 10296 dbpath (C:\SitesData\survey.unifocus.com\mongodata_test27022" --logpath C:\SitesData\survey.unifocus.com\mongo_27022.log --logappend --port 27022) does not exist, terminating
|
Evidently, the backslash at the end of the dbpath is being treated as an escape sequence and preventing the quotes (which were added automatically by --install !) from closing correctly.
A suitable workaround is obviously to not put a backslash character at the end of the dbpath, but it definitely had me scratching my head for a bit!
