Problem with starting a server

[SvDen]

I tried to learn the 1-st step from angular tutorial but I couldn't even start a server.
It starts normally, but when I am going to visit http://127.0.0.1:8000/ it throws me an error. I attached debug.txt here.
Help me please.

Still important.
I updated all of modules include http-server but it changes nothing.

I've got the same problem.

npm-start -> starting up http-server, available.

but when trying to connect via chrome or ff:

_http_outgoing.js:351
throw new TypeError('The header content contains invalid characters');

I've updated http-server and karma. That didn't help.

[SvDen]

That didn't help me too.

But I got another solution, step by step:

1. cd /path/to/your/app
2. install 'npm i -g lite-server'
3. run 'lite-server' being in the /app directory.

I hope it helps you. Not what I expected, but still working.

Thank you very much SvDen.

lite-server is the solution I was lookin for!

Same problem here. Thanks for lite-server solution, but I still don't know how to make protractor to find what it needs. I changed a port of baseUrl parameter in default config to 3000 (lite-server runs at it) but protractor still can't get index.html

Right now npm install http-server -D fixes it for me.

More info in PR: #311

@igoradamenko i tried ‘npm install http-server -D ’,but it doesn't work. had the latest http-server version
solved the problem ?

[igoradamenko]

@braveliuchina It's interesting. Are you sure about the version of http-server? Try to check out this issue.

[lhy234]

@igoradamenko thanks .i solved this problem by changing the version of http-server in package.json.

[MocYang]

I update http-server to 0.9.0.Then change the package.json file .Now everything goes well.

[Doubl3]

Upgrading the http-server dependency to 0.9.0 seems to fix the pb. Thank you @igoradamenko & @MocYang !

This issue could now be closed, if somebody still contributes to this tutorial.

Thx for getting back.
I will leave this open, as in its current state the tutorial fails (i.e. the user needs to update the dependency themselves).

I am about to submit a PR that will take care of that (among other stuff), as well as bring the tutorial up to speed with angular v1.5.
I'll close this when it lands.

I have problem with start node.js (node v4.4.4 http-server 0.9.0)
First start pass is good, node start and browser display angular-phonecat page.

@kuznets, this mrans that the first instance is still running and bound to pirt 8000, so the port is not available for the second instance to bind to.
You can't have more than one instances running at the same time - make sure the first one has been stopped properly.
