I'm trying to setup a local install of a parse server for my express app. Here is what I have done:
npm install -g parse-server mongodb-runner
Then:
mongodb-runner start
That triggered this error:

So instead of running mongodb locally I decided to create a cluster on mongodb.com. Then I tried running this command connecting to the cluster(of course I replaced the APP_ID, MASTER_KEY, and MONGODB_DATABASE_URI with the proper values):
parse-server --appId APP_ID --masterKey MASTER_KEY --databaseURI MONGODB_DATABASE_URI
this is the error I got:
/usr/local/lib/node_modules/parse-server/lib/ParseServer.js:225
throw err;

I've been googling for so long and I can't figure this out. parse-server and mongodb are both completely up to date. Says parse-server is 3.0.0 and mongodb is 3.1.8
