Hi guys. i am trying to learn some new things. i am starting with ’ Get set for our back end development projects. and there was a challange to :
In your terminal, start MongoDB by entering:
mongod --smallfiles
in cloud9, everytime i write mongo --smallfiles it won’t start it says
munkiuke:~/workspace (master) $ mongod --smallfiles
bash: mongod: command not found
how can i make it work so i can continue.
I can’t remember exactly but try typing mongd in quotes so:
“mongod” --smallfiles
I think I found something close to that that worked.
didn’t work sadly. i tried, and i remade the new challange from scratch nope.
Ah try this one:
“mongod” --smallfiles --nojournal
I think this is the thread that solved it for me

Enter this into the console:
:$ which mongodb
If that comes up with nothing, then mongodb didn’t get installed. You’ll have to install it.
:$ sudo apt-get install mongodb
I type: ./mongod --smallfiles
Yep, I hit the same problem.
mongod --port 27017 --dbpath=./data --smallfiles
worked for me.
