Hi, I'm new to github, but I'm not sure "issues" should be "personal issues", I'd tend to think they ought to be issues of the software. In this case, you should post such problem on the dedicated mailing list (see readme file in the code). Now we need more information to solve your issue :

• What's your OS (server side/client side) ?
• Is your client the same computer as your server ?
• What does your node server say when you launch it ?
• What do your config files contain ?
• What's your experience in Web development ?
• What messages do you get, server side / client side ? Cheers

  This server can be customized by creating a configuration file named: ./server/config.json
  This server can be customized by creating a configuration file named: ./server/config_local.json
  Server cannot start without any configuration file.

  Thanks for help !

mmm have never run it on Mac… could you tell me what files (not directories) are in ./server/ ?

I download at Downloads folder on Mac.

./Downloads/BrowserQuest-master/server/.

I think have problem for url is ./server/ .But it don't say url is fail

[lzbk]

could you paste the output to "ls -l" in ~/Downloads/BrowserQuest-master/server/. ?

Thanks @lzbk . I try but not effective I use syntax:

node server/js/main.js

then

This server can be customized by creating a configuration file named: ./server/config.json
This server can be customized by creating a configuration file named: ./server/config_local.json
Server cannot start without any configuration file.

url don't a matter :(

[lzbk]

It is not not effective. It can't as it is not meant to start the server, nor sort the problem. "ls -l" will display all the files & directories in the current directory (here, I'm interested in the "server" directory) and their permissions. But in order to make a diagnosis I would like this information. The node server says you're missing a configuration file, hence my wondering if you have it or not.

[lzbk]

There are config files in the client and others in the server.

Ok ! thanks @lzbk so much . I'll try again

Please ! help me.

[lzbk]

well congrats your server is running… You could limit yourself to just one world and going into debug level by adding to your server config file : "debug_level": "debug", "nb_worlds": 1, Now you should load the client index file in your browser to connect… or that's how I do it. The client config files should contain as a host the address you use in the address bar of your browser to see the content of your directory.
