Hi Emmanuelle,
unfortunately I cannot tell you much about the Homebrew distribution of BaseX, but you'll probably get a response from our Mac users soon. Until then, maybe you can give the ZIP version a try [1] and report back to us if you are more successful?
Thanks, Christian

Hi sorry to ask a basic questions, but I'm a newbie that doesn't always understand all the pre-requisite in the documentation. If I can't find help here, just tell me.
I tried to install a local instance of baseX and use the web application features. I work on mac and installed baseX with homebrew after changing the password of the admin user, and creating a database, I launched the httpserver and typed in my browser http://localhost:8984/ the result is :
HTTP ERROR: 503
Problem accessing /webapp. Reason:
Service Unavailable
what am I missing ? is it even possible to use a web app on a local computer ? thanks in advance for your help...
