Is your mongod up and running on port 27017?
When you issue mongo it tries to connect to default port i,e 27017

It works after installing tools.
Thanks for replay

I have the same problem, what tools did you install?

Best regards

By tools probably he meant mongodb tools

I don’t think your error is related to tools
How did you install your mongodb?As a service
If yes check if service is started or not
If it is not started start it

If it is not installed as service you have to start your mongod manually to connect to it by mongo
mongod --port xxxx -dbpath --logpath
Check mongo documentation for command line options
