Sorry to bother you and i appreciate your time.

Hi Nandy,

No bother at all. This error just means that whirlwind (pymongo more
specifically) can't connect to mongodb. Make sure you have mongodb
running. By default whirlwind assumes your mongodb is running on
localhost. If you want to point it somewhere else you can set a dif
hostname and port via the config/settings.py file. We will work on
adding this to the docs soon.

best,
Matt
