Daml Navigator isn't running

Questions
1

Hello, I am new to DAML and I followed the documentation to create a new project.
https://docs.daml.com/getting-started/index.html
https://docs.daml.com/tools/navigator/index.html

The ui-app (localhost:3000) is working fine but
The problem is that the navigator is not starting.
Even if I manually go to localhost:7500, it gives “unable to connect” error.
I am using sdk version 2.1.1

Thank you

Hi @452126a4d0b58809a054 and welcome to the forum,

create-daml-app comes with a custom UI and therefore does not start the Navigator by default. This is controlled in the daml.yaml file by the line

start-navigator: false

You have two options:

  1. Delete that line from the daml.yaml file and restart daml start
  2. Start navigator manually. You can do so via daml navigator server.
