Unhandled 'error' event while trying to run mean stack

I follower every instruction for installing a MEAN stack application.

At the end of it all I run grunt and when I go to http://localhost:3000 I get the following error:

Running "clean:0" (clean) task

Running "jshint:all" (jshint) task
>> 47 files lint free.

I searched and found this answer, but this does not seem to be the case, when I run ps aux | grep node I dont get any running process:

trufa    14763  0.0  0.0  23492   956 pts/14   S+   15:39   0:00 grep --color=auto node

I searched through many answers but none seem to apply. Some suggest to change the port. I tried it and the error is the same.

Any suggestions as to how to proceed?

you had run another server using the same port 8080.

Sometimes the automatic bower install does not work if you run npm with sudo.

  1. I would recommend setting up npm so it does not require sudo.
  2. Try running $ bower install from your project root, and then restart the server.
