I am new to Derby and just installed it on Ubuntu 12.10.
I have the following installed.
I created the starter CoffeeScript application using derby new --coffee testapp. It seems like things installed just fine.
When I try to run the app using npm start I get the following error:
digilord@digidev:~/testapp$ npm start

Has anyone else run into this?
With some help from TheOceanMethod I was able to get everything working. Thought I was going to stop there huh?
Here's the solution:
Derby 0.5.9 requires Node to be v0.10.15. Not Derby specifically. Some of the dependancies require that version of Node. Redis needs to be v2.6+, so 2.6.14 works.
One other thing. In the server/index file there is a line that references ../../public that is commented out. In order to get the ability to serve images you need to uncomment that line.
