I am trying to run a simple http server in my project directory. All I need is GET request support, so I can GET html/css/js/etc. For that I wanted to use http-server from npm.
I installed it with npm install http-server -g
Now I cd
to my project folder where it has the index.html file, I open the terminal and run http-server
But when I open my browser at http://localhost:8080/index.html
- it can't connect to the host.
Am I missing something?
Okay, the issue was - I had another package installed on Ubuntu, which is also called node
Node JS package is called nodejs
on my system and I think that http-server is looking specifically for 'node'. In order to work around this:
I removed the node package with sudo apt-get remove node
and created a symlink for nodejs:
sudo ln -s /usr/bin/nodejs /usr/local/bin/node
First install npm . Second npm install http-server -g .Next append after the http-server url template url like http-server C:\\xampp\\htdocs\\
