Error: Tablet Could Not Be Started

[Diana Hudani]

Hello I'm a real beginner and was following the getting started page on Vitess' documentation with local install via homebrew. Everything went well until i had to start a single keyspace cluster where i had to run ./101_initial_cluster.

It had shown this error:

add /vitess/global

add /vitess/zone1

add zone1 CellInfo

Created cell: zone1

etcd start done...

New VSchema object:

{

  "tables": {

    "corder": {},

    "customer": {},

    "product": {}

  }

}

If this is not what you expected, check the input data (as JSON parsing will skip unexpected fields).

ApplyVSchema Error: rpc error: code = Unknown desc = keyspace(commerce) doesn't exist, check if the keyspace is initialized

Waiting for vtgate to be up...

and it stays like that for a while. I am really stuck, and would appreciate the help anyone could give me. Also please note that I am a pure beginner and if this seems like a ridiculous problem, please understand.

Thank you.
