Node.Js I can't run the server

Question

This is what it supposed to do on Node.Js

I am stuck at 6:16 where it said "node server.js" where it supposed to open up 127.0.0.1:3000, but all I get is this error.

on my browser it says "ERR_CONNECTION_REFUSED"

There is nothing wrong with XAMMP and I don't really need port 80 to be open its for beta testing.

Answer 1

What the error in your console says is that the static() method is undefined and does not exist inside of the imported connect namespace i.e. the connect package.

The api for Node's HTTP package

It seems that the static() method you use is a method for the ExpressJS framework.

The api for the ExpressJS framework

So when you install ExpressJS and create the connection using that framework the method won't be undefined and everything will work as supposed.
