Issue with connecting to Mongodb

[ssriram1]

Hi,
I just installed cyclotron on OSX El Capitan and I am trying to run app.js from inside cyclotron-svc. I keep getting this error related to connecting to port 27017. I have checked using netstat that mongod is running and listening on port 27017.

Thanks in advance!

Hi @ssriram1, I think this is related to #13, with the service binding to IPv6 instead of IPv4. Can you try making the following change at the very bottom of cyclotron-svc/app.js:

app.listen(port, '0.0.0.0', function(){
    console.log('Cyclotron running on port %d', port);
});

Hi @ssriram1, I'm looking at this again and I realized I totally misread your issue. I saw ::1:27017 which looks like an IPv6 issue, and thought it was the same as the other issue.

Maybe localhost isn't resolving on your machine, so you can try updating the Mongo config in config/config.js with the actual IP address:

mongodb: 'mongodb://127.0.0.1:27017/cyclotron',

Does the Mongo shell connect successfully as well?
