My lapis server keeps throwing "error 500 Internal Server Error"

I have been experimenting with the lua web framework, lapis, recently. My issue is that when I run lapis server, and try to connect to the website via my browser (localhost:8081), I receive the following error: 500 Internal Server Error. In the logs I get a whole spew of errors:

    coroutine 0:
    [C]: in function 'require'

This is weird as I have all of these things installed. Does anyone know what the root of my problem might be?

Solution

  • lapis work on luajit 5.1 only. You might have 5.2 or 5.3 installed. Make sure you pin the version to 5.1 while installing.
