 Description   

Following instructions verbatim on Windows 2008R2, cannot setup mongo as a service – consistently getting the error that "failed to open "c:\data\log\mongod.log"

I think there is an error with the instructions, or they should be made more explicit - i.e. what is the EXACT content of the config file.

Searched internet and stack overflow to no avail

Thank you.
