Cannot start backend for development

[Klengen]

Hi, i wanted to use your project and add some features. I can start the MongoDB, and the front-end like described in the "Get started". However when I try to start the back-end with yarn start:dev from the backend folder, I run into this exception:

As well, I tried it on two different Windows 10 computers. Maybe somebody had the same problem or knows what i am missing.

I would really appreciate some help and if more information are needed, feel free to ask.

PS: Cooles Projekt!

Did u start the mongo container with the provided docker-compose? Can you verify in the Docker Dashboard that the DB is running?

Thanks for the fast response.

And yes, it should be running.

The URI has to be formatted as a Standard Connection String for MongoDB.

Assuming everything runs on the same machine you should be able to just replace @mongodb with @localhost and it should work.

MONGO_URI=mongodb://root:asdasd@localhost

I'm going to fix the wiki today.

Oh thanks a lot. It is working :D

Never used docker before :)
