Troubleshooting

Common issues and how to fix them.

Axios 404 error in the client

The sever is not running or the client can not reach it.

Often the node server will not start because there is already an instance of node running on port 8080. Kill the other instances and try again.

killall node
npm run dev // or nodemon in server folder

When the server is running you will see the Welcome to Gravity 🚀 message in your terminal console.

"setup": "node bin/installcheck && npm install && npm link && node bin/clientcheck && cd ../client && npm install && cd ../server && node bin/appcheck && cd ../app && npm install && cd ../server && node bin/setup.js && npm run dev",
