Change owner right of folder

after create required folder /var/mongod/db i use this command chown vagrant:vagrant /var/mongod/db to switch owner ship but not sucessful

@Dinh_67963

chown vagrant:vagrant /var/mongod/db

You need…

1. sudo to change ownership from root to the vagrant user
2. -R option to apply the changes to sub directories
3. to do it at the mongod directory level, i.e. /var/mongod

that means we should type (at home)
sudo chown root:vagrant var/mongod

[007_jb (O Brown)]

@Dinh_67963

sudo chown root:vagrant var/mongod

sudo chown -R vagrant:vagrant /var/mongodb

NB: Remember that the first slash is very important for these labs. And I think that the folder is called mongodb and not mongod so I’ve changed it for you.

@007_jb

sudo chown -R vagrant:vagrant /var/mongodb

i still got error

Remember what I reminded you about… this also applies to creating (mkdir) the directory.
