Until here it worked somehow now. I had editable files already in step

That still fails with the same error message on the browser.
However, I found some info in the  *Message* buffer.

Entering debugger...

elnode-log-access: Symbol's function definition is void: aget


This missing aget function might be the problem?! I would need to test further.

Thanks for your help and suggestion
