With the netstat output, it's a little clearer why it wasn't working before. The "127.0.0.1:27017 " part means that Mongodb is specifically bound to the localhost (127.0.0.1) interface on the remote host. You can't contact that instance of mongodb directly by trying to connect to the host's regular IP address--you can only contact that instance of mongodb through the localhost address. And of course, since it's localhost, you can only contact if from a client running on the same host.
By default mongodb is configured to allow connections only from localhost(IP 127.0.0.1). We need to allow remote connections from any ip address. The following change should only be done in your development server. Open up etc/mongod.conf file and do the following change.
I used robo 3t to login to a database and was surprised that I was able to write on the collection despite having a read only role, by adding a document via the GUI or sending commands through Robo 3T.
