Adapt Learning Community: Question:Server selection timed out after 30000 ms

I encountered an unsolvable problem when installing adapt: I always get an error when I go to the 'node install' step under the macOS system. The following shows the detailed error information. Are there any professionals who can answer this question?

details:

(base) appledeMacBook-Pro-2:adapt_authoring-master apple$ node install

Found an existing config.json file. Do you want to use the values in this file during install?

> Use existing config values? y/N (N)

This script will install the application.

Would you like to continue?

> Continue? Y/n (Y)

We need to configure the tool before install.

On the Mac system instead of node server try sudo node server. See if that works and make sure to enter your computer password.

I had to use sudo to get it to work on my mac at home.

Sorry I meant "sudo node install" not "sudo node server"

protip: if you forget to prefix a command with sudo you can do this:

sudo !!

(re-run last command with sudo privileges)

Proper User Policy apparently means Simon Says.

Hello,

I am having a similar issue but I probably overuse sudo rather than under use it so I'm not sure that is my problem. I think it's a database issue in my case, but it's so long since I've set anything like this up I might be a little out of touch.

Cheers!
