Install MongoDB as windows service

In this page I will show you how to install MongoDB in windows as service. Download MongoDB .msi file here and install. I assume that you install it in C:\Program Files\MongoDB. MongoDB will connect C:/data/db as default dbpath, if this directory doesn't exist you have to tell MongoDB the right dbpath. I create two directories for log(D:\mongo_data\log) and database(D:\mongo_data\db).

Start MongoDB Service

Before configuring MongoDB service you have to use following command to start MongoDB service.

复制代码
cd C:\Program Files\MongoDB\Server\3.0\bin
mongod.exe --dbpath D:\mongo_data\db

You will see the output like following

复制代码

You can press Ctrl + c to stop the service. As you can see it is a tedious process to start and stop the service. Next, I will show you how to configure MongoDB as windows service.

Configure MongoDB Service

Create a configuration file at C:\Program Files\MongoDB\Server\3.0\mongod.cfg like following.

复制代码
systemLog:
    destination: file
    path: D:\mongo_data\log\mongod.log
storage:
    dbPath: D:\mongo_data\db

Open windows command line and change directory to MongoDB installed and install MongoDB as windows Service

复制代码
cd C:\Program Files\MongoDB\Server\3.0\bin
mongod.exe --config "C:\Program Files\MongoDB\Server\3.0\mongod.cfg" --install

After executing the commands you can find MongoDB service in Windows Service Management(Win + R --> services.msc --> Enter)

You can create a shortcut to quick start and stop MongoDB service. How to create shortcut?
