ERR_INVALID_ARG_TYPE When starting server #5

Closed casual-gamer closed 4 years ago

casual-gamer commented 4 years ago

I'm trying to run the server locally (mainly due to the 5MB card size limit) and I'm encountering the following error whenever I attempt to start the server:

`root@docker:/home/docker/tabletop-ambulator# DATABASE_URL=postgressql://localhost/ambu root@docker:/home/docker/tabletop-ambulator# node server/server.js url.js:154 throw new ERR_INVALID_ARG_TYPE('url', 'string', url); ^

I'm thinking it might be related to my postgres URI but I've tried a few different versions (like: DATABASE_URL=postgres://_user_:_pass_@localhost:5432/ambu ) but I can't seem to get the server to start.

I wasn't setting the DB URL properly. If I ran

'export DATABASE_URL=URL' I no longer had this problem
