MongoDB Error with C#

Question

I have seen the Quickstart Windows and downloaded mongodb-win32-i386-2.0.4.zip and this error appears when I run mongo.exe:

Error: couldn't connect to server 127.0.0.1 shell/mongo.js:84   
exception: connect failed

What should I do? Do I need to download something else?

You started the Mongo shell client. Do you also have a server (mongod) running? — Thilo, Commented Apr 27, 2012 at 0:08

mongo.exe is the Mongo Shell, which will attempt to connect to the server at localhost:27017 unless you explicitly specify another server and port.

The one you're after is mongod.exe (notice the 'd'?), which is the MongoDB Server.

I think maybe you did not start your Mongo DB server.
