Cannot use mongoimport on vagrant - linux

Question

Following is my mongo.conf:
# mongod.conf
# Where and how to store data.
storage:
dbPath: /var/lib/mongodb
journal:
enabled: true
systemLog:
destination: file
logAppend: true
path: /var/log/mongodb/mongod.log
net:
port: 27017
# bindIp: 127.0.0.1
replication:
replSetName: rs0
oplogSizeMB: 250
I tried to import the data given here on the guest linux using
wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/mongodb/docs-assets/primer-dataset/dataset.json
mongoimport --host=127.0.0.1 --port=27017 --db test --collection dataset --file dataset.json
and also tried on the host machine (mac):
mongoimport --host=127.0.0.1 --port=27071 --db test --collection dataset --file dataset.json
In both the cases I get the following output:
2016-02-25T11:01:56.280-0500 connected to: 127.0.0.1:27071
2016-02-25T11:01:59.278-0500 [........................] test.dataset 0.0 B/11.3 MB (0.0%)
2016-02-25T11:01:59.309-0500 [........................] test.dataset 0.0 B/11.3 MB (0.0%)
2016-02-25T11:01:59.309-0500 Failed: error checking connected node type: no reachable servers
2016-02-25T11:01:59.309-0500 imported 0 documents
All the requests that I make to port 27071 on the host system are forwarded to post 27017 on the linux guest. There are no connections issues as curl localhost:27071 gives It looks like you are trying to access MongoDB over HTTP on the native driver port.
UPDATE:
Following is the log of mongo:

If I try to do mongoimport --host=0.0.0.0 --port=27071 --db test --collection dataset --file dataset.json from the host system, following is added to the log:
2016-02-25T18:36:03.443+0000 I NETWORK [initandlisten] connection accepted from 10.0.2.2:51277 #1 (1 connection now open)
2016-02-25T18:36:06.479+0000 I NETWORK [conn1] end connection 10.0.2.2:51277 (0 connections now open)
and when I try this same command from the guest linux, I get:
2016-02-25T18:38:29.982+0000 I NETWORK [initandlisten] connection accepted from 127.0.0.1:59910 #2 (1 connection now open)

Answer 1

Try to chance your bindIp param to 0.0.0.0, and restart the service.
