How to properly run mongodb service (mongod.exe)?

I am having a problem to be able to run MongoDB on my pc. I have 32-bit Windows 7. I already installed a hotfix that said the page I needed to install and it still doesn't let me start the service. I attach a screenshot of the Windows Console with what comes out to me.

How to start the process, it is how you are doing it, it is not necessary to write mongod.exe, simply from the command line, inside the folder /bin:

Mongod.exe

I draw attention to the error message, remember that you must first create the folder where the data

Md data \ db

When created, the directory executes the process again.

I have used only the versions of Mongo 2.* and 3.* 64-bit, and the only problem I've had is with /data/db/ permissions, your message indicates that in 32-bit versions you do not have the journaling property enabled by default.

storage.journal.enabled
Tipo: boolean    
Default: true es sistemas de 64-bit, false en sistemas de 32-bit

Review the configuration

You can create a mongod file.cfg

C:\mongodb\mongod.cfg

Which will contain:

storage:
   journal:
      enabled: true

To use when you start the process:

Mongod.exe conf config "C:\mongodb\mongod.cfg"

Or you can also try

Mongod.exe journal log

In the end I had the same problem and in this case it was not enabling property journaling, it is specifying different storage engine:

> mongod.exe --storageEngine=mmapv1
