Issue with local copy

[higheredd]

Hi!

I cloned the project and ran it on my local machine. However, on clicking "Make" button, the error pops up.

Console:
(The application runs on port 3000)

Error occurred while trying to proxy request /api/generate/resume from localhost:3000 to http://localhost:3001 (ECONNREFUSED) (https://nodejs.org/api/errors.html#errors_common_system_errors)

How did you start the application? It seems like just the client is running and not the server.

I followed these steps:

1. npm Install
2. Npm start
   I have the same issue.

Which folder did you run that in? From your comment I'm guessing that you ran that inside just the app/client folder so only the client is running and not the server.

If you haven't already, please check out the Setting Up guide. But basically the simplest way to setup and run both the client and server:

1. Clone the repo
2. Run npm run build from the root directory
3. Run npm start from the root directory

Hey @Bipinjot and @higheredd can you let me know if you've tried the instructions I mentioned above?

[higheredd]

Hi @saadq
I ran the commands in the root directory. The issue persists. I'm trying different things.

Facing exact same issue. I followed @saadq instruction above, but the error still persist.

Hey all, sorry to hear you guys are facing issues...

One other thing to try – Can you try to individually run the client and server?

1. Run npm start inside app/client in one terminal window
2. Run npm start inside app/server in one terminal window

I have the same issue.
If I run the client and the server, I get this with Template1

  Error: LaTeX Syntax Error

and this with the other templates (only the "I can't find file" parts change)

I'm on Windows 10, I installed NodeJs 18.18.0 (npm 9.8.1) and TinyTeX for Windows with the packages listed in the main branch guide.
I'm on the v2-(old) branch.
