first run problems

[boulabiar]

Hi,

I tried running but I have many error messages related to scss.
Then I get this
Error: req.flash() requires sessions

The full error is here

Is anyone able to run this without modifications?

@boulabiar I got this error about a month ago when I was converting this project to use Sequelizer. I believe it was because the session module was unable to access the sessions table ( in your case collection ) for the database.

I just cloned, did a yarn install and a yarn dev and it's working for me. You should have the following collections in your mongo db

$ mongo
MongoDB shell version v3.6.3
connecting to: mongodb://127.0.0.1:27017
MongoDB server version: 3.6.3
> use boilerplate-dev;
switched to db boilerplate-dev
> show collections;
agendaJobs
devices
identitycounters
posts
sessions
