title: MongoDB failure using AWS Cloud9
body: <p>While using mongo on the cloud9 IDE, I followed the instructions on <a href="https://github.com/nax3t/aws-cloud9-instructions" rel="nofollow noreferrer">github</a>. everything works fine when I run <code>./mongod</code> for the first time after following the instructions. But when I try repeating the same command after closing the mongo bash, I end up with the following error, and all of my databases being lost.</p>

  <p>I'm following "the complete web development bootcamp" course by Colt Steele on Udemy.
  The stack I'm using is NodeJS, express, and mongo.
  Please help.</p>
