I am trying to connect to a MongoDB v4.4.6 in my Meteor v2.13.3 app. I can connect to this db from the mongo shell and “mongodb compass” but not when starting a meteor app. It also works when I start a meteor server on the same machine as the mongodb is on but by using the external IP.
My .bat file to start my meteor server in windows looks like this:
SET MONGO_URL=mongodb://u:p@111.222.333.444:27017/databaseName
meteor run --settings settings.json
Any idea why my meteor app would be refuced connection?
