Other I3wm worked twice, but now isn't?

Hello,
I just installed FreeBSD in a Vmware. And installed the required packages for i3 (plus rofi). It started twice without any problems, but now all I get is a blank screen. And <alt> [Enter] doesn't not open a terminal?

TIA,
David
 
Thanks for the suggestion. The command I used to install i3 was this:
sudo pkg install i3 i3status dmenu xorg.
Here is the error I am getting:

Did you create a ~/.xinitrc file? Move that one out of the way for now. Test Xorg itself first, because it looks like that doesn't even start properly. Try with startx and post your /var/log/Xorg.0.log. You can easily do this with cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log | nc termbin.com 9999
 
Dont know if you fixed your issue or no but i had issues with i3 in the past.
Check i3 config file without starting your i3wm you might find its not complete, missing half of it.
Just get new config from i3.
