MongoDB error

[deeberkowitz]

How do I solve the error?
bash: mongod: command not found
I installed Mongodb and the compass version. When I log into the compass it shows connected to the localhost.

From your description, it sounds like the issue might be related to a missing local installation of the MongoDB shell.

To help us better understand and assist you, could you share more details about:

1. What you're trying to accomplish
2. The exact steps you’re following

For example, you could start with something like:

1. Launching VS Code

... and outline the steps leading up to the error message you encountered.

Looking forward to your reply! 🚀
