I'm trying to reinstall it, because it has problems. For example, I can't install Chromium because mongodb-org-server is not configured. But I can't even remove it for the same reason.
apt-get autoremove --purge mongodb
Or:
apt-get purge mongodb
Or:
apt-get remove --purge mongodb
All end in the same way:
dpkg: error processing package mongodb-org-server (--configure):
subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 102
Errors were encountered while processing:
mongodb-org-server
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)
Some data about my machine from hostnamectl:
Operating System: Debian GNU/Linux 8 (jessie)
Kernel: Linux 3.14-2-amd64
Architecture: x86_64
How can I fix this?

To avoid that sort of problems you should install software only from native Debian repositories. Unfortunately it is not unusual when sloppy/incompetent 3rd party packages are responsible for such troubles.
To recover try removing file /var/lib/dpkg/info/mongodb-org-server.postinst
before attempting to apt-get purge mongodb
