Error with connection; "Stream already opened"

[arunjitsingh]

Just started with it (npm installer), but got this error (also with source version from github):

That last repeats in an endless loop..

(Using the bleeding-edge version of node: v0.3.4-pre)

Same thing happens with PUT, POST and DELETE requests

cURL'ing works:

[ arunjitsingh ] ~ ◊:  58$ curl http://127.0.0.1:5984
{"couchdb":"Welcome","version":"1.0.1"}

Thoughts/ideas?

I get the same error on every request, no matter what I do. Mac OS X 10.6.4, node 0.2.6 installed with homebrew, npm 0.2.14-6, http-console 5.1.

UPDATE: newest node(0.3.5-pre) doesn't solve the issue. http-console@0.2.5, however, works on both 0.2.6 and 0.3.5 and seems to be the last version that does.

I am getting this issue too with node version 0.2.6 and http-console version 0.5.1

Installed node and npm with brew.

I have an Ubuntu Lucid machine tricked out with node 0.2.6 and http-console 0.5.1 and I get the same issue. curl shows my website responds fine, but trying http-console requests blow out with the Stream already opened??? Have not run into this on my other machines... some kind of evil confluence of two releases not meshing nicely?

[allait]

This stopped happening for me after an update to node 0.4 and http-console 0.6. Everything seems to work fine right now.

@allait
I am curious. All I see is node 2.6 stable. There is an "unstable" branch at 0.3.8 but nothing indicates a 0.4 as you suggest. Can you let me know what node you are running and from where?

Thanks

[allait]

https://github.com/ry/node HEAD is 0.4 right now. I suppose it's nearly the same as 0.3.8, it's just that I'm using homebrew and it means only two options to install node.js: stable 0.2.6 or repository HEAD.

@allait updating to node-v0.4.0-pre and http-console v0.6 works. It's fun to use. So far GET, PUT, POST and DELETE work against CouchDB

Hi all,

I just installed node 0.4 HEAD to ~/local and then npm install http-console and sure enough, it all worked fine. Thanks for the update.
