UPDATE:
I trashed the previous installation and re-installed. When I did I got the error message
Failed at the canvas@1.6.0 install script 'node-gyp rebuild'.
npm ERR! Make sure you have the latest version of node.js and npm installed.
npm ERR! If you do, this is most likely a problem with the canvas package,

I believe I saw this error after the last install, as well. just downloaded node.js and npm, so that's not the problem.
I following the directions to the letter, as far as I can tell.
Thanks for your time and attention!
I'm sure there's an answer to this somewhere, but I'm not finding it—apologies if I'm just being daft. I get as far as:
info: Listening on 8888
but when I try to load http://localhost:8888/ into any browser, I get a blank page in FF, and in Chrome I get
This site can't be reached
The webpage at http://localhost:8888/ might be temporarily down or it may have moved permanently to a new address.
ERR_SOCKET_NOT_CONNECTED
In Safari, I get:
Safari Can't Open the Page
Safari can't open the page "http://localhost:8888/" because the server unexpectedly dropped the connection. This sometimes occurs when the server is busy. Wait for a few minutes, and then try again.
I feel like I'm sooooo close, but the grapes are JUST beyond my grasp. Help? Please?
Thanks!
Jason
I'm not sure about the latter error, but it looks like canvas is failing to install. Did you successfully install the dependencies first (https://github.com/nypublicradio/audiogram/blob/master/INSTALL.md#mac-os-x-installation)? If so, do you have a more complete error log from the installation? I would open an issue here: https://github.com/Automattic/node-canvas/issues
THANKS for the reply @veltman ! This is going to sound stupid, but I turned my computer off, and then back on again, and it worked. Like that's ever really useful, right!?
Glad it's resolved!
