 Description   

As explained in https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/mongodb-user/WK0miiAOqSA, a user upgraded to 3.0 from 2.6 and did not read the upgrade instructions carefully enough, so they have an invalid replica set config. They received this log message:

[ReplicationExecutor] Locally stored replica set configuration is invalid; See http://www.mongodb.org/dochub/core/recover-replica-set-from-invalid-config for information on how to recover from this. Got "BadValue votes field value is 3 but must be 0 or 1" while validating

The link in the message don't go anywhere. This could be a SERVER problem of the wrong links in the message or a docs problem that those pages don't exist but should. I couldn't find a documentation page on recovering from an invalid config in 3.0, but there is a note on how to recover at http://docs.mongodb.org/manual/release-notes/3.0-compatibility/#replica-set-configuration-validation.
