Unable to get it running about semaphore

Note: even running node semaphore.js doesn't help:

After running, rm -Rf node_modules; npm install .
The app is working. However, after login it redirects me again to the login page.

note: I'm posting my progress towards fixing the issue so anyone who faces it has an idea if they face the same issues.

Hi there!

You do need to run redis before hand. I see in the error log that some bindings module can't locate native code. I'd suggest re-installing the node modules and watching for any errors there.

Neither pm2 or supervisor will aid this issue. All they do is keep the node process up (ie if it crashes, it is rebooted).

Install Redis and run it, and let us know how you get on!

hi @matejkramny .. I installed redis on the server and it is currently running.

My problem now is that I see the login page of the application, when I input the default user and password and click login, I can see for a split second that it says "login successful" But then it redirects me again to the login page.

Any idea why this is happening?
Thanks!

Try adding npm-shrinkwrap.json file as per #52 (specific comment)

@matejkramny that worked.

Unfortunately semaphore wasn't as I expected. Documentation isn't clear and getting things off after finishing the installation isn't clear at all.

Thank you for your help though.
