Pt. 14 - MongoDB Error - {"message":"Operation `users.insertOne()` buffering timed out after 10000ms"}

At 3:21:23 when I type localhost:5000/api/users/createadmin in my browser this message is returned.

I've replayed the section multiple times to check for typing errors but that hasn't fixed the problem.

This same issue came up with me. Have you found a resolution?

So, after downloading from the website, a little research and finding not much info, I decided to open

$ [filepath]/downloads/mongodb-macos-x86_64-4.4.5/bin directory then opened > install_compass > navigate to the $ [filepath/applications directory and open "MongoDB Compass" app [note: file extension .app] > opened that app and answered all the questions up to where I got to the "New Connection" page > selected "fill in fields manually" > selected the "connect" button

that made an error "connection to 52.24.221.173:27017 closed" so I had to play around with it a little bit to figure out I needt to do these things:

I then went and clicked on "create free cluster" (I think I answered some questions, maybe not) > navigate to setup "Database Access" (remember your username and password for later) > navigate to setup "Network Access" (using current IP address) > back to "Clusters" page > "connect" button > "Connect using mongoDB compass" option > "I have mongoDB Compass" option > copy/pasted connection string (but I updated the username and password in the string to match the Database User > click connect

That took me to a different screen in mongoDB compass but I am not clear what to do next so I am still looking into it. Attached is the screen I made it to:

So I am back at it again. I double-checked that all three of these were okay:

1. Connect to your cluster

2. MongoDB node driver

3. Quick start Node.js

That's what I am working on right now at least. After that I am going to look over the code that was created in Pt. 14 and see if it matches what is suggested, if anything, in mongoose literature.
