examples not running

[mrqc]

hi i downloaded the examples as a ZIP file. I extracted them and tried to open the index.html in firefox. nothing happens. the console tells me: Error: Script error for: famous/core/Engine http://requirejs.org/docs/errors.html#scripterror

Error: Script error for: famous/core/Surface http://requirejs.org/docs/errors.html#scripterror

Error: Script error for: famous/views/Scrollview http://requirejs.org/docs/errors.html#scripterror

I think you have to run examples through a local webserver

same thing if I run it via a webserver (apache in my case)

The examples work fine statically. I reckon your problem is that you downloaded it as a zip file instead of using git clone --recursive. As such, Firefox is throwing you 404s because the files really are missing.

You can try to patch it yourself by downloading more zips, but I would just clone with recursive.

ok, but when I am cloning the examples I get:

macmini:dev mrqc$ git clone git@github.com:Famous/examples.git --recursive Cloning into 'examples'... Permission denied (publickey). fatal: Could not read from remote repository.

Please make sure you have the correct access rights and the repository exists.

I just tested and it works if you use HTTPS. Try with the command below:

$ git clone https://github.com/Famous/examples.git --recursive
Cloning into 'examples'...
remote: Reusing existing pack: 1639, done.
remote: Counting objects: 7, done.

are there some pre requirements for doing this? because as you can see, it does not work for me!! i tried:

macmini:dev mrqc$ git clone https://github.com/Famous/examples.git --recursive Cloning into 'examples'... remote: Reusing existing pack: 1639, done. remote: Counting objects: 7, done. remote: Compressing objects: 100% (7/7), done. remote: Total 1646 (delta 0), reused 0 (delta 0) Receiving objects: 100% (1646/1646), 1.57 MiB | 456.00 KiB/s, done.

Permission denied (publickey). fatal: Could not read from remote repository.

Please make sure you have the correct access rights and the repository exists. Clone of 'git@github.com:Famous/famous.git' into submodule path 'src/famous' failed

Its the first checkout which takes me more than half a day!

I just noticed that submodule cloning defaults through SSH. Since it's failing, I wager your Github account doesn't have a copy of your public key. Go to the SSH Keys section in account management and check if macmini is there; if not, add it using the tutorials.

this worked! I hate this setup shit

I've changed the README, thanks for the tip!
