@oneknucklehead I am getting this any idea.

I fixed this by copying the DATABASE_URL from .env.example file and pasting it to https://github.com/calcom/cal.com/blob/main/packages/prisma/.env after removing the ../../.env line

@oneknucklehead Sorry, I don't understand what I should do. I am getting the same error when running yarn dx as the original poster.

EDIT: I figured it out right after posting this. Posting in-depth directions below for slow people like me in the future:

1. locate the .env file in calc.com/packages/prisma
2. delete the ../../.env line
3. locate .env.example in cal.com root folder
4. copy the DATABASE_URL line
5. paste it into the .env file in calc.com/packages/prisma
6. run yarn dx
