Web Development with Clojure, Third Edition - reitit error in chapter 2 (page 43)
Hello,
I’ve been following along with the book and I am having an issue with “reitit” in Chapter 2. I downloaded the source code included with the book and diffed it to what I had typed. I can’t figure out what I am doing wrong.
As far as I can tell my project.clj and core.clj are the same as the book’s.
The error message is
Syntax error (FileNotFoundException) compiling at (ring_app/core.clj:1:1).
Could not locate reitit/ring/as__init.class, reitit/ring/as.clj or reitit/ring/as.cljc on classpath.
my code is here GitHub - jlangson/ring-app-demo
I am currently at commit 820154c337e2fbc988840bc895353c92f0a3636b
My suggestion is to add clarification to help avoid whatever is causing my error.
First Post!

Hi, it looks like that might be an artifact of how you’re starting the app. It might be that the project wasn’t imported into intellij as a Leiningen project. Try reimporting it using File->New->From Existing Sources and make sure you select Leiningen in the menu.
If you start the app in the github repo using lein run
from the terminal, you should see something like the following:
2021-04-15 12:29:30.111:INFO::main: Logging initialized @2866ms to org.eclipse.jetty.util.log.StdErrLog

2021-04-15 12:29:30.638:INFO:oejs.Server:main: Started @3393ms
and you’ll be able to navigate to localhost:3000
in the browser. So, the project itself looks like it’s working.
