mongodb via mongoVUE connection refused


Trying to connect to remote mongodb via mongoVUE (windows 7)

Cannot do that - always have a response "No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it"

firewall is off..

Anybody had such an issue?


Solution

  • If the Mongo instance you are trying to connect to is part of a replica set you should try to pass in the whole set comma separated into the Server field of the connection

    I had exactly the same issue and this was the solution for me
