npm start can't start

[chaimaech]

Hello, I have an issue with your example. I tried to follow the tutorial and to clone the project but everytime I run "npm start" it fails, even if I haven't make any modification on any file.

I'm sure I have the latest npm and node versions but I have this error :

chaimae@chaimae:/var/www/html/isomorphic-redux(master)$ npm start

> isomorphic-redux@1.0.0 start /var/www/html/isomorphic-redux
> NODE_ENV=production NODE_PATH=$NODE_PATH:./shared node --harmony .

events.js:141
      throw er; // Unhandled 'error' event
      ^

I'm a newbie to React and REdux and all this but I'm willing to learn so please don't consider it as a stupid question (eveni if it is :D)

Thank you in advance =)

It looks like something is already bound to localhost:3000. If it's a previous version of this which is forked you can try killall node at the command line, then try running again.

Otherwise the easiest way would just be reboot the computer :P

Hello @bananaoomarang ! I did it twice without results but it turned out to be some NODE_PATH variables I added for another REACT tutorial... It works just fine, sorry for that :D (I tried to get it work for about 3 hours before posting this issue ^^)

Thank you for your quick reply ^__^
