What should I do to make the chat work?

Question about the task

Under discussion

For everything I type, I receive "An error occurred while working with the client." Is there something specific that I should be typing? What? I trie "localhost" and then "8080" (which were suggested by someone) and nothing happens. There's no chat at all.

Enter server address:
localhost
Enter server port:
8080
An error occurred while working with the client.

I figured it out. If someone doesn't know how to start this thing, here's a step by step: 1. Run the 'Server.main()'. 1.1 Type a port (usually is 8080 I think). You should receive the message "Server is running". 2. Run the 'BotClient.main()'. 2.2 When asked for server address, enter localhost (if your server is your own PC). 2.3 When asked for server port, enter the same as you entered in 'Server.main()'. In this case, 8080. The message "Connection established. To exit, enter 'exit'." should appear. 3. Run the 'ClientGuiController.main()'. 3.1 You will be asked again to enter the server address and the server port, which are localhost and 8080 in this case. Then will you be asked to enter your username. 4. If it works, output should be something like this:

5. Enjoy :)
