Caused by the fact that mongodb client is not installed at this point, but the service wait script is attempting to use it to check if the service is up yet and redirecting all output to /dev/null. Lacking a successful return code the wait script just keeps trying until it reaches the max and times out even though mongodb server is up and running fine. Later in install process the client is installed, thus a subsequent run of the installer will succeed fine.
