sudo service mongod start : mongod: unrecognized service
Solution 1
If already you install the mongodb just uninstall based on mongodb config
Before going do all stuff first install mongodb server.
sudo apt install mongodb-server
Then continue to install what mongodb config suggest you.
Once done your mongodb configuration you can go
sudo service mongodb start
Note: Its not mongod its mongodb
Solution 2
I had same problem. It seems there is some mis-configuration if you install via source code.
Re-installing mongoDB using apt-get activated mongod as a service for me.

I'm testing learning locker which is based on MongoDB it's all inside a ubuntu14.04 docker https://hub.docker.com/r/hadyrashwan/learninglocker-ubuntu14.04/ . I got it to work but I can't start Mongodb automatically tried the repair command and changing the name in start service command to Mongodb or mongo but not working. but running Mongodb just make it start but I want to start it automatically not opening a terminal and leave it open so the system continues to work
