If cloning to a subdirectory within another project, you may need to do the following:

||||
|
||||
1. Start the server manually (e.g. `node/node_modules/ep_etherpad-lite/node/server.js]`)
|
||||
2. Edit the db `filename` in `settings.json` to the relative directory with the file (e.g. `application/lib/etherpad-lite/var/dirty.db`)
