Any suggestions? Thanks in advance

Was it helpful?

Solution

Looks like I've found a fix (for my case). I just commented this row in .powconfig:

#export POW_TIMEOUT=999999999

When this row is uncommented then server fails to start. I'm not sure why exactly this happens but with commented row server works fine. I suggest you to try default config. Now my log looks like this:

OTHER TIPS

Note that this error can also be caused by your browser trying to access a pow .dev page through https (just change it to http). Just for the reference of anybody else who happens to fall pray to that issue.

I'd check the value of $TERM in your shell. "echo $TERM"

Sounds like you've got a funky value in there, or are missing files for the value that you have in there.
