Node.js Debugging js:183

As a primer, I'm new to node and I have tried npm install [email protected] --save-dev --save-exact from https://github.com/ionic-team/ionic-cli/issues/2922 for resolving the below issue.

 node server.js

Creating new shopping list item

My repo is here...for what it's worth I'm on Windows. How should I resolve the js.183 error?

I replaced IP address with localhost and it worked for me:

BEFORE:

server.listen(3000, '**old ip address**');

AFTER:

server.listen(3000, '**localhost**');

I tried many solutions but none of them worked. Try this I hope it will help.

Your error is, Error: listen EADDRINUSE :::8080 so something else is already running on port 8080. You will need to find out what is using it, you can run the following in an elevated command prompt on Windows: netstat -a -b

Once you have identified what is running on that port, you will need to kill it, or if it is something you need to keep running, you will need to choose a different port for your app to run on.
