Unable to join race on local server - code-rally

Question

I installed the code rally server following th guide on IBM.
It runs, I can access the server information page and see the leaderboard.
But when I try to enter with Eclipse I get a
"Unable to enter Keepertje on Localhost"
I also try to connect with the nodeclient found on Github, but there I also cannot authenticate. Am I missing something?
Kind regards,.
Cindy

OK so you have not yet logged into the server according to the error message. To do so please click on the servers browser in Eclipse (the grey square icon next to the green + for creating new AIs). Once you have done that select your local server and login using the login button to the right - if the username does not exist it will create it and log you in. Once logged in you can request a new race and it should work (the user ID of -1 error message is displayed if you're not logged in - I'll have a look at getting that text changed for this circumstance to make it clearer).
