Cuckoo: CuckooCriticalError: Unable to connect to MongoDB: 127.0.0.1:27017: [Errno 111]

[mokkkeakn]

Hey,
Until yesterday I was able to start MongoDB by using the following commands:

run /etc/init.d/mongodb start.
cuckoo run webserver

Today i tried to change the configuration and from Windows 7 use Windows XP.
After i made the changes am getting the following error:
CuckooCriticalError: Unable to connect to MongoDB: 127.0.0.1:27017: [Errno 111] Connection refused

Some parts of the configurations:
[mongodb]
enabled = yes
host = 127.0.0.1
port = 27017
db = cuckoo
store_memdump = yes
paginate = 100

MongoDB authentication (optional).

username =
password =

[virtualbox]

Specify which VirtualBox mode you want to run your machines on.

Can be "gui" or "headless". Please refer to VirtualBox's official

documentation to understand the differences.

mode = gui

Path to the local installation of the VBoxManage utility.

path = /usr/bin/VBoxManage

If you are running Cuckoo on Mac OS X you have to change the path as follows:

path = /Applications/VirtualBox.app/Contents/MacOS/VBoxManage

Default network interface.

interface = vboxnet0

Specify a comma-separated list of available machines to be used. For each

specified ID you have to define a dedicated section containing the details

on the respective machine. (E.g. cuckoo1,cuckoo2,cuckoo3)

machines = IE6 - WINXP

[IE6 - WINXP]

Specify the label name of the current machine as specified in your

VirtualBox configuration.

label = IE6 - WINXP

Specify the operating system platform used by current machine

[windows/darwin/linux].

platform = windows

Specify the IP address of the current virtual machine. Make sure that the

IP address is valid and that the host machine is able to reach it. If not,

the analysis will fail.

ip = 10.0.2.10

(Optional) Specify the snapshot name to use. If you do not specify a snapshot

name, the VirtualBox MachineManager will use the current snapshot.

Example (Snapshot1 is the snapshot name):

snapshot = XPsnap

If that's a very common issue am sorry in advance am new :)

that isnot related to vm, is just your mongo not started
if you type mongo can you get mongo shell?

I get the following error:
Failed to connect to 127.0.0.1:27017, in checking socket for error after poll, reason errno:111 connection refused

Couldn't connect to server 127.0.0.1:27017 connection attempt failed:

Connect@src/mongo/shell/mongo.js:229:14
@(connect) :1:6
exception failed

Hope that help!

So, if you had to guess, what would you think is the problem here?

[mokkkeakn]

At first i thought there is a service stopped but i tried to restart mongodb but nothing change.
If i had to guess i would say to change the default port at one of the bellow:
27017, 27018, 27019, 28017

Is it an option to use net.port or --port instead of 27017?

i tried to restart mongodb but nothing change.

you should investigate why mongo doesnt want to start on your system, thats all

Closing as resolved (MongoDB isn't running or so).
