ng serve doesn't listen other than localhost #2375

gyuho · 2016-09-27T19:27:45Z

OS? Windows 7, 8 or 10. Linux (which distribution). Mac OSX (Yosemite? El Capitan?)

Ubuntu 16.04

Versions. Please run ng --version. If there's nothing outputted, please run
in a Terminal: node --version and paste the result here:

node --version
v6.6.0

Repro steps. Was this an app that wasn't created using the CLI? What change did you
do on your code? etc.

I have this app https://github.com/jelbourn/material2-app.

And just type npm start in repository root. Both in remote and local machine, I see

> m2-app@0.0.0 start /home/gyuho/material2-app
> ng serve

But when I try to connect to http://[PUBLIC_IP_ADDRESS_OF_CLOUD]:4200, it doesn't serve. I checked all network settings (I am using Google Cloud VM) and confirm that there's no firewall blocking :4200.

Same simple webserver in Go listening to :4200 works fine on the same machine.

Is there anything that I am missing to deploy angular app in virtual machines?

This also doesn't serve via remote machines.

gyuho · 2016-09-27T21:29:25Z

I found the cause. It's binding static IP 127.0.0.1, not 0.0.0.0.

I am not sure what npm package does this... :(

$ sudo netstat -ntlp
Active Internet connections (only servers)
Proto Recv-Q Send-Q Local Address           Foreign Address         State       PID/Program name
tcp        0      0 127.0.0.1:4200          0.0.0.0:*               LISTEN      27260/angular-cli
tcp        0      0 0.0.0.0:22              0.0.0.0:*               LISTEN      1799/sshd

It should be something like

$ sudo netstat -ntlp
Active Internet connections (only servers)
Proto Recv-Q Send-Q Local Address           Foreign Address         State       PID/Program name

gyuho · 2016-09-27T21:44:41Z

Works with command ng serve --host 0.0.0.0

angular/angular-cli#2375

estradamarkie · 2016-11-10T15:33:41Z

@gyuho Hi have you found the cause which package or making the app bind to 127.0.0.1 and not other IPs? I have to run --host 0.0.0.0 as well to make it work on VM.

gyuho · 2016-11-11T09:13:00Z

@estradamarkie I have no idea :0

estradamarkie · 2016-11-11T12:16:25Z

#3101 I posted a similar issue this might help clear things up :)

StabakSen · 2017-03-27T04:57:00Z

ng serve --host 0.0.0.0 worked. Thanks

CokeSpirit · 2017-04-18T21:23:35Z

Thanks, this drove me crazy.

nyannko · 2017-05-27T23:14:07Z

Thanks, it is helpful to write Dockerfile and deploy to server.

ZiedChekir · 2017-05-30T13:24:53Z

Thanks It worked :D ng serve --host 0.0.0.0

azarus · 2017-07-06T03:48:03Z

Whats the reason behind 127.0.0.1 this is just unnecessary most people probably want to test their apps on mobile too. And accessing the dev environment over lan is the easiest way to do so. Can we make the 0.0.0.0 to be the default please? @gyuho

sshreya0808 · 2017-09-04T09:08:36Z

Invalid Host header. still not solved by ng serve --host 0.0.0.0

levivel · 2017-09-04T15:41:56Z

@sshreya0808 I may have had the same "Invalid Host Header" problem as you did. The cause of this problem may or may not have been because AWS remote server/VPS has some default firewalls/security settings that may happen to obstruct simply testing Angular's CLI-installed "Welcome to app!" page.
To fix this on my AWS instance, without enabling production, I simply ran:
ng serve --port 8080 --host 0.0.0.0 --disableHostCheck true , then navigated from Safari/Chrome to the IP address I associated with my instance in the "Elastic IPs" section of my AWS dashboard -- plus the port I specified (e.g. "142.43.53.12:8080/").

ghost · 2017-09-30T10:48:54Z

@levivel
yeah, ng serve --port 8080 --host 0.0.0.0 --disableHostCheck true it works for me.
thanks 👍

dstran · 2017-11-02T03:49:13Z

None of these helped. My browser tab continues to spin with no errors in the dev tool Network tab in Chrome. I disabled private and domain firewalls. I'm out of ideas. Anyone can help me troubleshoot this? Greatly appreciated!

rohit2219 · 2017-11-08T12:20:28Z

Thanks for this , this option worked for me in my ubuntu remote: ng serve --host 0.0.0.0

vusan · 2017-12-24T15:17:50Z

Also worked for me by ading serve on .angular-cli.json.
Port here 4201. Solution found from #2542.
"defaults": {
"styleExt": "css",
"component": {},
"serve": { "host": "0.0.0.0", "port": 4201 }
}

lgoyal06 · 2018-04-10T16:06:10Z

thanks it worked for me as well

bb1 · 2018-06-01T11:04:15Z

@ninjadev1030 solution with --host 0.0.0.0 --disableHostCheck true works even in Angular 6! Thanks for this.

ludwigliu · 2018-08-05T02:27:18Z

Thanks, it works now, as it drives me crazy for several days.

vanishtachangea · 2019-02-28T09:39:07Z

@ludwigliu , @lgoyal06 , @rohit2219 , Can anyone of you please explain how you fix it? I try modification in the .angular-cli.json: "serve": {
"host": "0.0.0.0", "port": 4201
}
and running
ng serve --host 0.0.0.0
The angular app is not loading.
I have another api url which is loading though. It is weird. Please help me.

hamed6 · 2019-05-03T08:59:20Z

@levivel You solved my problem thanks, how can I fix it permanently without changing host/port. Im using different cloud service, but I assume it can apply to my service.
one more question, what you mean you "without enabling production"?
