Hi, I am trying to do the local setup for the salon appointment scheduler certification project and this is my first time setting it up locally because I ran out of monthly usage for my Github codespaces. I did all the steps that was indicated and have been troubleshooting for hours now but I always get the output in the attached image, I would be very grateful if someone could help me with this. btw I am running the latest version of fedora if that influences anything.
The terminal is broken. Try closing it and restarting a new one. If the colour of the prompt remains green as in your current screenshot, then it was not fixed (it should become light blue).
In that case I suggest writing down all the steps you ran, and documenting where you ran them in detail (including the operating system info) and posting that here. Can’t do much to help without that list.
Here’s the info of my OS and the steps I took 
The result of running cat /etc/os-release

The steps I took to try to run CodeRoad
- Ran git clone GitHub - freeCodeCamp/rdb-alpha · GitHub in ~/Programming
- Ran cd rdb-alpha in ~/Programming
- Ran code . in ~/Programming/rdb-alpha
- In vs code was given a prompt that asks if I trust the author of the files in the folder and clicked yes and ticked the trust all files in parent directory Programming
- Opened the docker file and copied my user token into the appropriate area
- Hit ctrl+shift+p and ran Dev Containers: Rebuild and Reopen in Container and waited for the command to finish
- In the new vs code window hit ctrl+shift+p again and ran CodeRoad: Start and clicked Start New Tutorial and pasted the tutorial URL which was provided on fCC page
- Clicked Start
- And it tried to setup the tutorial but failed and outputted that the Test runner failed
When you clicked start, did you wait a good amount of time? The start is actually doing a lot of stuff like setting up programs and environment and if you do not wait long enough it will not complete.
After the start is done, you must close the terminal and open a new one but you didn’t say if you did that or not.
Also is this the first time you attempted this?
Also I suggest closing the terminal and clicking reset then opening a new terminal to see if the prompt turns blue or not.
This is my first time doing the local setup but as I said in my post I have tried to get it working and have been troubleshooting for hours. And I did wait a good amount of time after clicking start, and I tried closing the terminal and clicking reset then opening a new terminal and it still didn’t work.
try to rebuild the container again and this time, when the panel pops open to let you review the log, click on it so you can see what errors are being logged and share them with us (if any)
Should I give that massive amount of text it spat to the terminal when launching the container?
Read through and look for any errors (if any). Share snippets that include those errors.
There was some warnings but it finished with a success message.
You can also try checking the OUTPUT tab in your terminal. In there, you will see a drop-down list on the right (called Tasks I think) and if you click that, you should be able to find “CodeRoad(Logs)” and “CodeRoad(Tests)” I believe. You can try switching between these to see if any errors are shown in the OUTPUT tab.
I am running into the same issue. It seems the needed files are not being created when the container is being created. This includes the test files which are also not present.
Just to be understood, I am running a different project. I started over here today and got everything to work including a database restore, but the tests fail. It seems the test background files were not created when the container was set up.
When running tests, I simply get this feed back and there is nothing in the OUTPUT tab below
Here is a screenshot of the file structure
