I'm trying to get RESTBase set up on my wiki. I've downloaded it, run npm install and updated the configuration. However, about 3-4 seconds after startup I get the above error message from node_modules/service-runner/lib/worker.js. In case it is relevant I'm running on Ubuntu 14.04 using SQLite. I expect it is something silly I've missed but any pointers would be much appreciated.
Topic on Talk:RESTBase
This means that the worker never received the config from the master process, which is rather unusual. Could you try starting your service with `no_workers: 0` set in your config YAML and see if the service works?
Thanks for your response. I've tried it and that doesn't seem to make any difference. However, if I put "-n 0" on the command line it exits immediately with the message:

where XXXXX is the name of my server. There is no other error message.
Without the -n 0 I get:

The above text is in white and is followed by the error message regarding a timeout in red. My bad - I hadn't looked properly at the white text before and should have reported that. Am I missing a dependency?
Are you using Node >= 4 ? These messages indicate that you might be running it on an older version. Is that the case? Note that RESTBase needs Node >= 4 in order to run properly.
That would be the problem then! The README.md file says I need 0.10+ and, since I've got 0.10.37, I assumed that would be ok. Suggest someone updates the README! Thanks for your help.
Oh, right! Will update, thank you for pointing that out.
