Tests fail out the gate

[developdeez]

Keep getting this error when testing the base model.
Is initialized!:
Error: failed to get recent blockhash: FetchError: request to http://localhost:8899/ failed, reason: connect ECONNREFUSED ::1:8899

I've tried while running validator locally and not. It doesn't work.
Is there a fix coming?

FetchError: request to http://localhost:8899/ failed, reason: connect ECONNREFUSED

If you've started a validator locally I can't see how it is possible that nothing is running on this port.

How are you running the tests? Does solana-test-validator give you any error output?

Actually maybe use node 16 per solana-labs/example-helloworld#392 (comment)

This could be related to Node version as the previous comment suggested but it also could be a Solana setup issue.

Closing because it's an old issue and there isn't enough information.
