Mongo waiting on 27017 even after reinstall
I have uninstalled and reinstalled mongo (3.0.1), being sure I accepted the network access on windows 8, and yet I still have the same issue of "waiting on 27017".
The commands I sent are the following:

Don’t know what to do when MongoDB waiting for connections on port 27017 ?
The waiting for connections message in the console output indicates that the mongod.exe process is running successfully.
Next, you need to connect to MongoDB through mongo.exe shell using another command prompt.
As soon as you are done with that, the waiting message in the first console would change to connection accepted.
