Mongodb – serverSelectionError when connect to localhost in mongoose?

Hi I tried every thing like mongoose.connect('mongodb://localhost/blog') but I am not able to connect mongoose to node here is my code….

const express = require('express')
const mongoose = require('mongoose')
const articleRouter = require('./routes/articles')
const app = express()

mongoose.connect('mongodb://localhost:27017/blog')

app.set('view engine','ejs')

Here is the error:

/home/vishwajeet/webdeve/MARKDOWN-BLOG/node_modules/mongoose/lib/connection.js:807
  const serverSelectionError = new ServerSelectionError();
                               ^

    Hey I think your problem is that you don’t have mongodb installed on your computer.
    Once you download it you can change

    mongoose.connect('mongodb://localhost:27017/blog')

    to

    mongoose.connect('mongodb://127.0.0.1/blog')

    if the problem is still there

    This is due to node version.
    Try writing like this. I had a similar problem and got it like this.

    mongoose.connect('mongodb://127.0.0.1:27017/blog')
