    Not sure why I got this error “Unable to load shared library F:path.. contextify.node”. Do you have any idea ?

    Der Befehl “node” ist entweder falsch geschrieben oder

    The “sys” module is now called “util”. It should have a similar interface.

    Hello,
    I have followed your instructions,downloaded and run the bat file, but when I type http://localhost:9001, I got a message saying ‘server not found’

    I have Wampserver installed in my computer. I thought that the problem may lay there and I stopped all the services, but I still have the same error message.

    I have also tried unzipping all the files in the wwww folder of Wampserver and running the bat file from there, but the problem is that the localhost cannot be found:
    Unable to connect

    Firefox can’t establish a connection to the server at localhost:9001.

    The site could be temporarily unavailable or too busy. Try again in a few
    moments.
    If you are unable to load any pages, check your computer’s network
    connection.
    If your computer or network is protected by a firewall or proxy, make sure
    that Firefox is permitted to access the Web.

    I have tried with other browsers.
    Can you please advice?
