You need to specify the URI for the mongodb server and verify configs.

MongoDB Connection scripts for Mongoose I posted in this post here.

Create names connection in mongoose

What tool did you use to help validate that? That should not have validated at all… I want you to look at this script, and change yours around accordingly. Whatever plugin you used to help generate that, I highly encourage you stop using it. const mongoose = require('Mongoose'); mongoose.connect("MongoDB://localhost:<PortNumberHereDoubleCheckPort>/<DatabaseName>", {useNewUrlParser: true}); const <nameOfDbschemahere> = new mongoose.schema({ name: String, rating: String, quantit…

Otherwise, your MongoDB configs are off.

/etc/mongod.conf and make sure you update the net.bindIp setting to 0.0.0.0 . and ensure you have firewall with port 27017 open, and MongoDB user with the necessary permissions to access the database over VPN, you need access perms. You also need to make sure you add a route to the VPN configuration to route traffic to the MongoDB server’s IP address.
