mongodb (4.4) port 27018 is installed in docker, and when installing mongoexporter, it does not start as a service, it returns the following:

Hi @Diego_Pozo ,

Welcome to the Percona community!!  
Kindly check the exporter logs and let us know if you see any errors. Once way to check the logs is by running the journalctl command.

Also, share the output of the mongodb\_exporter.service file.  
`cat /usr/lib/systemd/system/mongodb_exporter.service`

Regards,  
Parag
