mongodb 2.6 Windows 7 64 bit -- Unable to start the mongodb replication set

[Shibu Raj]

I am very new to mongo, so if this is something very basic please excuse me.

I am trying to start a new mongodb instance using the 6.6 version 64 bit bild.

I am using the following option mongod.exe --config mongod.cfg

These are the contents of the configuration file

systemLog:

destination:file

systemLog:

path:"E:\\mongodb\\rs0-0\\logs\\mongodb.log"

quiet:true

net:

bindIp:127.0.0.1

port:27017

replication:

oplogSizeMB:128

replSetName:rs0

storage:

dbpath:"E:\\mongodb\\rs0-0\\db\\"

smallFiles:true

I am getting the following error

E:\mongodb\rs0-0>E:\mongodb\mongodb-2.6.0\bin\mongod.exe --config mongod.cfg

Error parsing YAML config file: yaml-cpp: error at line 3, column 10: illegal ma

p value

try 'E:\mongodb\mongodb-2.6.0\bin\mongod.exe --help' for more information

Any one came across this error. Any clues as to what to change

Thanks

Shibu

Hi Shibu,

From my quick testing it appears that the problem is because you have two "systemLog" entries. The first on line #1 is okay, but the error is because of the extra systemLog entry on line #3 as noted in the output.
