Common issues​

Sometimes, errors similar to these may appear when trying to run the server:

ApolloError: connect ECONNREFUSED... ApolloError: cannot connect to server...

In most situations, cancelling and re-running nf start and nx serve [PROJECT-NAME] should fix the issue. If it does not, try the following:

  • Run npm i, then restart the server.
  • If that doesn't work, re-run the commands at 3. Microservice Databases. Then restart the server.
