Can you help me to fix this one?

Thanks

Hi Marcello,

Check that medic-api is running and that you’re connecting on the correct port!

Means that cht-conf is unable to access the CHT instance. The most common culprit is missing port number as it’s sometimes truncated when copying URLs.

Marcelo_De_Guzman · July 20, 2023, 7:56am

How to check that missing port number?

I am using windows 10

elijah · July 20, 2023, 8:02am

Assuming you’re using the default settings from documentation here:

It should be 5988 and the deployment URL will be:

https://medic:****@localhost:5988/medic/_design/medic/_rewrite/app_settings/medic

Marcelo_De_Guzman · July 20, 2023, 8:51am

Should I update my docker-compose file?

Marcelo_De_Guzman · July 20, 2023, 8:53am

Is there an easy way to install cht-core as developer ?

I am getting hard to install it as of now.

binod · July 20, 2023, 10:12am

These are some guides that you can follow to install CHT as an app developer:

If you have WSL2, you can directly go to the CHT docker helper section and give it a try. It is probably the easiest way to install CHT for app development. As mentioned in the guide, here are some benefits of using the script:

You only have to download one bash script

All compose files and images will be downloaded automatically for you

All networks, storage volumes and containers will be created

A valid TLS certificate will be installed, allowing you to easily test on with CHT Android natively on a mobile device

An unused port is automatically chosen for you when creating a new project. No more manually looking at your existing .env files!

Marcelo_De_Guzman · July 30, 2023, 10:16am

Check that medic-api is running and that you’re connecting on the correct port!

But for this issue, what is the best way to fix this faster rather than check a document for installing version 3.x ?

We are getting a new person to develop CHT in our company, but it seems it was really hard to install this, due to this error.

Marcelo_De_Guzman · July 30, 2023, 10:19am

So for this one, it should be this command, right?

medic-conf --url=https://medic:password@localhost:5988 --accept-self-signed-certs

But, I tried that one and I have still error like ECONNREFUSED 127.0.0.1:5988

Hi @Marcelo_De_Guzman

Please make sure that API is accessible on the URL that you’re using. If you access this exact URL in your browser, are you getting a response? If the URL is correct, accessing it in the browser should take you to the login page.
If you are running CHT 3.x using Docker, I suspect your URL should be https://medic:password@localhost .

Marcelo_De_Guzman · August 2, 2023, 1:42am

Is there a video on how to install medic, rather than reading the document?

niraj · August 2, 2023, 4:34am

Hi @Marcelo_De_Guzman,

We have video tutorial course on " Introduction to Building CHT Applications" in CHT Academy here. The course offers basic understanding of technical details to develop simple CHT applications. So, it may be helpful to train a new person on developing CHT application. However, the setup process here is on CHT version 4.x.

Marcelo_De_Guzman · August 2, 2023, 5:24am

Hi @ niraj, really thanks about this. I think this one will really helps, especially with the ones who gonna start from scratch, or should I say, a non-techie person.

and no worries about CHT version 4.x, we have also plan to transition to that, it was just we still have development on-going,

Will reply to you when we install the version 4.x on our local.
