New installation unable to install dependencies

[Pheromon]

I just did a new git clone, and checkout tag 1.11.0, when I try to install dependencies (npm install), I get this error and nothing gets done:

you probably not run with --force flag

npm install --force

That worked thanks (albeit with a lot of warnings).
Is there a way to migrate the database from the previous version?

Anyway I can't run the server, I get this error:

Can you attach the full rats.log ?

[Pheromon]

I've it not available right now but I saved what I think was the problem:

[6/4/2023 6:52:52 AM.041] [ERROR] [system] Exception: Error: spawn /home/user/rats-search/searchd ENOENT

i.e.: the searchd daemon does not exist when doing "npm run server"

[DEgITx]

this is consequence, not a problem. The search path of searchd is completly wrong, I need rats.log to figure out the reason. More likely you have some not specific arch of the system where you try to run it, or can be

git clone --recurse-submodules https://github.com/DEgITx/rats-search.git

missed recurse-submodules option
