I am getting an unexpected error message when I press enter for the question
“What file should be used for Realtime Database Security Rules? database.rules.json”
While trying to run firebase init.
I have attached an image not sure if you can view it.
Below is the text from the terminal session.
Firebase Realtime Database Security Rules allow you to define how your data should be
structured and when your data can be read from and written to.
? What file should be used for Realtime Database Security Rules? database.rules.json
Error: An unexpected error has occurred.

Hi.
The issue was because he was not running the code inside a folder.
Make sure you followed step 1) Creating a project folder described on page 120.
