I am completely lost at the moment and would greatly appreciate your assistance. I installed mongoDB through Homebrew and created a data/db directory on my hardrive at the root. Everything seemed fine so far. I then proceeded to run mongod and I was met with the following :
all output going to: /usr/local/var/log/mongodb/mongo.log
Here is the contents of the log file (the latest section of it) on my last run:

As far as I can tell, everything looks like it is running correctly (however I don't really know what I'm looking at). The only thing that seems amis is the dbpath, which according to the documentation defaults to /data/db/
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
