为什么 nodeJS 'Hello World' 示例不起作用？

Question

pasted a simple Hello World example from here to ubuntu machine. But it does not work. I get the output from console.log(), but navigate a webbrowser (firefox) to 127.0.0.1:8081 just outputs

'Problem landing page' The connection was reset The connection to the server was reset while the page was loading.

var http = require("http");

http.createServer(function (request, response) {

   response.writeHead(200, {'Content-Type': 'text/plain'});

   response.end('Hello World\n');
}).listen(8081);

console.log('Server running at http://127.0.0.1:8081/');

Whats wrong with it?

Answer 1

Make sure to:

• -run npm uninstall http
• -run init -y
• -run npm i
• -run npm http

If you have done already all this, make sure to go use Google, and not Bing Explorer, or Firefox
