Livereload server doesn't seem to start

[mudetroit]

I am using the basic syntax given, but when I attempt to connect to the livereload server it says that it is not running, and nmap seems to confirm this.

gulp.task 'styles', ->
    gulp.src(['./public/include/less/**/*.less', '!./**/_*.less'])
    .pipe plumber()
    .pipe less()
    .pipe gulp.dest('./public/include/css')
    .pipe livereload()

gulp.task 'watch', ['styles'], ->
    livereload.listen()

    gulp.watch './public/include/less/**/*.less', ['styles']

@mudetroit Tried to run with DEBUG=* gulp? It binds to localhost by default.

Hi @vohof , I am having similar issue, this is the log

  tinylr:server param files +520ms { files: [ '/Users/James/work/slide/build/game.css' ] } undefined undefined [ '/Users/James/work/slide/build/game.css' ]

@jamesdam it looks like it notifying about changed files just fine based on that. Are you using the chrome extension?

[jamesdam]

@vohof , Yes, I am using the latest version of the chrome extension. It was working fine until a few day ago.

This is the console log from the extension:

When I do a curl localhost:35729 I get this

{"tinylr":"Welcome","version":"0.1.4"}

Update: It turns out that there are some problem with my new proxy settings. Thanks for your help, @vohof !

P/S: I am not closing this issue as It was not opened by me.

[cyrusdavid]

@jamesdam Good for you!

@volof I ran the command you asked and it does appear to be starting, not sure why nmap was not picking it up.

Looking at the configuration it appears that I need to configure the server option. Two quick questions, what is an expected input (ip address?), and then what call is that passed into which call(listen?).

[cyrusdavid]

what is an expected input (ip address?)

If the hostname is omitted, the server will accept connections directed to any IPv4 address (INADDR_ANY). It was listening to localhost on earlier but I undid that.

what call is that passed into which call(listen?)

Which version are you using?

[mudetroit]

@vohol Thanks for the help. Apparently being overtired I somehow got server instead of host. What corrected seemed to get it fixed. I did notice that it did still seem to be attaching to the loopback interface.
