You can check on what port snap mongo is running with:

sudo netstat -plant | grep mongo

Then connect to that port, for example:

mongo --port 27019

Then look what database name wekan database has:

show dbs

If you want to delete database sometime, not needed usually:

use wekan
db.dropDatabase();

Anyway when you know database name, you can exit mongodb:

exit

Then restore database to inside snap mongo:

mongorestore --drop --port 27019 --db wekan

Snap MongoDB is at port 27019. You restored to wrong port.
