Treehouse TeacherAs a side note anytime you see anything with "Permission denied" and you haven't run the command using sudo, that should probably be the first thing you try. At the bottom of the error message we see this:
Permission denied 2016-08-18T23:08:17.557-0400 I -
Glad you got it working! Good luck!

sudo mongod? Note: you may be required to enter your password by the system.
