Probably by looking at the actual error messages in that "sytemLog" you are telling us you know where it is. A lot more useful than "screenshots" with no information at all. Look at the log, and then post the "text" if you don't understand the error listed there. - Neil Lunn
log folder is empty - N15
Did you find any solution for this? - Setu Kumar Basak

I had a similar problem with MongoDB 4. In auto generated config file, there is an extra configuration, that caused the problem.

#snmp:
mp:

When i deleted "mp:", i can finally start the server.

For me , this error was about mongod.cfg file , which I add security; authorization enabled. But it should be colon after security not semicolon.

security:
  authorization: enabled

In my case the error was caused by the server running out of space in the hard disk drive.

Clearing some space solved the problem for me.

In my case, this failed:

security:
  authorization: 
    enabled

And this worked fine:

security:
  authorization: enabled

I had same problem, below steps fixed it for me:

Search "services.msc"

Locate "MongoDB Server", right-click and select "Properties"

Access "LogOn" tab

Select "Local System account" radio button

Select Apply and then, OK
