Unable to execute the bin/solid-init start command.

[argahsuknesib]

Hello, I wish to use the NSS for development, and want to use the bin/solid-test init for using the server without HTTPS and just HTTP. I use the bin/solid-test init and subsequent bin/solid-test start but I still get an HTTPS connection.

Moreover, on requesting https://localhost:8443/ I get,

Can't find file requested: [object Object]

Thanks for your help!

@argahsuknesib I don't think NSS can run just as HTTP

Personally I never use init but my own config file.

./bin/solid-test start --config-file myConfigFile.json

Can you paste the config.file created by init

Hello @bourgeoa , thanks for the reply. The config file generated is,

{
  "root": "/home/kush/Code/NSS/node-solid-server/data",
  "port": "8443",
  "serverUri": "https://localhost:8443",
  "webid": false,
  "mount": "/",
  "configPath": "./config",
  "configFile": "./config.json",
  "dbPath": "./db",
  "sslKey": "/home/kush/Code/NSS/privkey.pem",
  "sslCert": "/home/kush/Code/NSS/fullchain.pem",
  "multiuser": false,
  "server": {
    "name": "localhost",
    "description": "",
    "logo": ""
  }
}

I don't think NSS can run just as HTTP

So, the clients who write to the pod need to be authenticated or just make sure that the communication is encrypted? I expect the authentication to work as the client requiring a write token to the pod.

Hello, works now! I was expecting the root in the config

"root": "/home/kush/Code/NSS/node-solid-server/data",

to automatically create a ./data/ folder which it didn't. Thus, I manually created it and it works now.
