Generated Express 4 app 404s with socket.io 1.0

socketio/socket.io#1556 (comment)

It seems like some of the error handling middleware the boilerplate of an express-generator app are forcing some socket.io calls to 404. (Not positive about that, but removing it seems to fix the problem)

The app was generated with express myapp --ejs on Mac OSX, testing with Google Chrome - I'm not super familiar with socket.io so I am not exactly sure what occurs, but it seems like for some reason the generated app is forcing socket.io to default to a different transport that it cannot load.

It appears that I overlooked some other differences in failing/succeeding app - most likely the express-generator is fine. Closing this issue
