Mongo Shell issues

Which ever command I type in Mongo Shell it gives me this error

[js] SyntaxError: missing ; before statement @(shell):1:8

When I open MongoDB shell it shows this

MongoDB shell version v4.0.5

Does anyone has the same problem?

Can you given an example of a command you’re trying to run on Mongo Shell?

I did get the semicolon error myself but that was because I wasn’t using quotations in the key part of query. Maybe you have the same issue.

For starters try running show dbs and show collections to see if they work.

When I try to connect to my own cluster.

Please share the command you are using and make sure you are not in the mongo shell already.

HI, I guess, You have to give permission for the dbpath --dbpath /data/db, Please give read and write access to the storage location and try again.
