Cannot create chat, Failed to establish new connection

[pedrolsdm]

After running make chat and create, I run into error: HTTPConnectionPool(host='localhost', port=8000): Max retries exceeded with url: /api/conversation/ (Caused by NewConnectionError('<urllib3.connection.HTTPConnection object at 0x7f689d426a90>: Failed to establish a new connection: [Errno 111] Connection refused')). Any ideas?

@pedrolsdm Can you share screenshot and give more clarity on error ?

You have to have make run going in a separate terminal window (in order to have a server make chat can connect to)- doing that resolved this for me.
