events.js:72 throw er; // Unhandled 'error' event

Question

I am trying to use node-ar-drone package for controlling and interfacing with an AR Parrot Drone 2 but I get the following errors after connecting to the wireless network of the drone in my OSX Yosemite:

587214779:examples mona$ node png-stream.js 
Connecting png stream ...

events.js:72
        throw er; // Unhandled 'error' event
              ^
Error: listen EADDRINUSE

    at Function.Module.runMain (module.js:497:10)
587214779:examples mona$ 

I wonder what the error might be?

For more information, I have followed these tutorials:

git clone https://github.com/felixge/node-ar-drone.git

install it using this command:

npm install git://github.com/felixge/node-ar-drone.git

PS: I am literally running an example in the example directory and I am not changing any code.

Answer 1

In png-stream.js change the following lines:

server.listen(8080, function() {
  console.log('Serving latest png on port 8080 ...');
});

To a different port, 8081 for instance:

server.listen(8081, function() {
  console.log('Serving latest png on port 8081 ...');
});

Answer 2

You need sudo/admin priviliges on your machine to run it on port 8080 or any port used. You will need to start with sudo on linux.

Answer 3

sudo npm start
