npm start fails

Sounds like the app can't connect to mongodb. In the development env, the app will attempt to connect to mongodb on localhost:27015 with default settings - you can check it's available by connecting to it yourself with mongo in your terminal

If it's not running, you can start the db with mongod

[cblanc]

Forgot to mention, if you intend on running this locally for dev I suggest running the following commands in parallel

npm run watch - watches frontend js and recompiles if any changes have been made
npm run dev - runs the app and watches for changes

Ah. Gotchya. Always the databases with me.

Started mongo with mongod --dbpath db. Idk if it's happy or not though.

Andrews-iMac:sws_gathers andrewkrigline$ mongod --dbpath db

Running mongo shows this:

I'm guessing I need to do some config work for Mongo?

[akrigline]

Also, after this does start, where is it? localhost:27015?

[cblanc]

Yes localhost:27015, MongoDB is working fine.

Issue here is you're running Node 0.12 npm ERR! node -v v0.10.29

If you have 0.12, you may have to update the symlink to your system node

Otherwise you can use nvm to manage node versions. Once it's installed it's a matter of nvm install 0.12 and nvm use 0.12 when you want to switch into 0.12
