Cold start doesn't work

Hi,

Following the instructions in the README doesn’t result in a working app. Not sure what is going on.

I cloned the repo, ran npm install --production, then npm start. There was a warning about admin account being disabled:

james@emma hoodie-app-mapchat[master]$ npm start

> hoodie-app-mapchat@1.0.2 start /home/james/repos/hoodie_stuff/hoodie-app-mapchat
> hoodie

WARN log 2017-02-14T17:34:31.769Z [ 'account' ] Admin account disabled: `options.adminPassword` not set
Your Hoodie app has started on: http://localhost:8080
Stop server with control + c

Navigating to localhost:8080 on my laptop shows a blank blue screen and a search bar:

The firefox developer dialog shows no issues with missing network files, but the console does show the message:

Using //@ to indicate sourceMappingURL pragmas is deprecated. Use //# instead[Learn More]  jquery.min.js:1
Error: hoodie.account not yet accessible, wait for hoodie.ready to resolve  client.js:1069:15
Use of getPreventDefault() is deprecated.  Use defaultPrevented instead.  jquery.min.js:3:31293
Error: hoodie.account not yet accessible, wait for hoodie.ready to resolve  client.js:1069:15

Clearly I need to somehow activate “hoodie.account” but not sure what to do.

node version v7.2.0 firefox 50.1.0 running couchdb 1.6.2, but it didn’t seem like the hoodie app cared about that at all, and I couldn’t see where/how to link that up.

Sure I’m sure I can hack that out.

Give me a day or two to get to it.

yep, those problems seem to be gone.

What I did: 0. checked out master (git checkout master)

1. pulled from github:master (git pull)
2. npm install --production

See some warnings:

hoodie-app-mapchat[master]$ npm install --production

1. Navigated to 127.0.0.1:8080 using firefox, I can see the map, can log in, etc.

Some other issues, (had an alert icon about not logged in until reloaded page; can’t add markers; can’t recenter map on my location (even though on start it picks Los Angeles fine)) but those are other issues. I’m going to close this one. Thanks.
