development.json file looks like this:

"mongo": {
    "username": "socioboarduser",
    "password": "password",
    "host": "127.0.0.1",
    "db_name": "socioboarddb"
},

I have tries changing this to localhost but the same error.

Can you please help?

Have you set up mongodb to accept those credentials? See docker/socioboard/init-mongo.js if you're not sure how.

[splitatom44]

Yes, mongo creds are good. Is there a docker version of socioboardV5?
Is the docker version easier to get up and running than on baremetal?

[vaughngx4]

@splitatom44 Yes, see my fork for the latest Docker stuff but it should be merged soon.
